The Ugly Truth

Earshot

Compositor: Wil Martin

Bitter sweet memories and where I've come
The struggle and the great unknown
Oh the places I was told I'd go and go and grow

'Cause you can't beat down the beaten
And you can't break down what can't be broken
Can't twist a lie into the truth

Show me now
Tell me what am I to do (when all the world has let me down)?
Staring out
Through a window with a view (eyes blind to none)...
Of the ugly truth
Of the ugly truth

And suddenly I finally learn
Realize it's a complete absurd
And I don't wanna be a slave to all the thoughts that hold me down

'Cause you can't beat down the beaten
And you can't break down what can't be broken
Can't twist a lie into the truth

Show me now
Tell me what am I to do (when all the world has let me down)?
Staring out
Through a window with a view (eyes blind to none)...
So life is hard, lonely too
Sometimes insane, what can I do?
I'm staring out at the world
Through a window with a view...
Of the ugly truth (2x)

Of the ugly truth...
Of the ugly truth...
Of the ugly truth...
