The Truth
Kris Allen

Lyin' next to you

Wishing I could disappear, hey

Let you fall asleep

And vanish out into thin air, hey


It's the elephant in the room

And we pretend that we don't see it

It's the avalanche that looms

Above our heads, but we don't believe it


Tryin' to be perfect

Tryin' not to let you down, yeah

Honesty is honestly

The hardest thing for me right now, yeah


While the floors underneath our feet are crumblin'

The walls we built together tumblin'

I still stand here holdin' up the roof

'Cause it's easier than telling the truth


I still keep your photographs

I remember how we used to laugh

I can keep on losin' sleep

If you're okay with being torn in half


It's the elephant in the room

And we pretend that we don't see it

It's an avalanche that looms

Above our heads but we don't believe it



Tryin' to be perfect

Tryin' not to let you down, yeah

Honesty is honestly

The hardest thing for me right now, yeah


While the floors underneath our feet are crumblin'

The walls we built together tumblin'

I still stand here holdin' up the roof

'Cause it's easier than telling the truth


Stop ignoring that our hearts are mourning

And let the rain come in

Stop pretending that it's not ending

And let the end begin, oh yeah


Tryin' to be perfect,

Tryin' not to let you down, yeah

Honesty is honestly

The hardest thing for me right now, yeah


While the floors underneath our feet are crumblin'

The walls we built together tumblin'

I still stand here holdin' up the roof

'Cause it's easier than telling the truth


It's easier than telling the truth
