"The Truth Hurts" lyrics

Jake the Snake, he had his cake
He swallowed the fork and got a, a bellyache
There might not be two so the first one you might have to take
He told me that falling was for free
And he told the whole world how it's got to be
But don't settle down or settle for less
With no second chances
You don't second guess
No, you don't second guess

The truth hurts, that's what he told me
The truth hurts, that's what he said
The truth hurts until the day you die

Polyurethane wheels and a piece of wood
When he got out he was gone for good
He cut the cord because he understood that he could
Gravity had zero effect
The straightest line is the least direct
Heartache, abuse, pain and neglect
They didn't love you
But they showed you respect
Yeah, they showed you respect

The truth hurts, that's what he told me
The truth hurts, that's what he said
The truth hurts until the day you die

Carved his own path and he blazed his own trail
And he made his own way and he set his own sail
What he told me a long time ago cannot be denied
That's how he lived until
Until the day he died

The truth hurts, that's what he told me
The truth hurts, that's what he said
The truth hurts until the day you die
The truth hurts, that's what he told me
The truth hurts, that's what he said
The truth hurts until the day you die
