Kris Allen - The Truth lyrics

rate me

<BR>

Lying next to you <br>

Wishing I could disappear<br>

Let you fall asleep <br>

And vanish out into thin air<br>

<br>

It's the elephant in the room <br>

And we pretend that we don't see it<br>

It's the avalanche that looms above our heads<br>

And we don't believe it<br>

<br>

Trying to be perfect<br>

Trying not to let you down <br>

Honesty is honestly <br>

The hardest thing for me right now <br>

While the floors underneath our feet <br>

Are crumbling, the walls we built together tumbling<br>

I still stand here holding up the roof <br>

Cause it's easier than telling the truth <br>

<br>

I still keep your photographs<br>

I remember how we used to laugh<br>

I can keep on losing sleep <br>

If you're okay with being torn in half<br>

<br>

It's the elephant in the room <br>

And we pretend that we don't see it<br>

It's the avalanche that looms above our heads<br>

And we don't believe it<br>

<br>

Trying to be perfect<br>

Trying not to let you down <br>

Honesty is honestly <br>

The hardest thing for me right now <br>

While the floors underneath our feet <br>

Are crumbling, the walls we built together tumbling<br>

I still stand here holding up the roof <br>

Cause it's easier than telling the truth <br>

<br>

Stop ignoring that our hearts are mourning <br>

And let the rain come in<br>

Stop pretending that it's not ending <br>

And let the end begin, oh yeah...<br>

<br>

Trying to be perfect<br>

Trying not to let you down <br>

Honesty is honestly <br>

The hardest thing for me right now, yeah<br>

While the floors underneath our feet <br>

Are crumbling, the walls we built together tumbling<br>

I still stand here holding up the roof <br>

Cause it's easier than telling the truth <br>

It's easier than telling the truth<br>

<BR><BR>
