Matthew Sweet The Ugly Truth lyrics

You don't want to die
But the living gets you down
We want you to act like nothings wrong
Even though you heard a sound

And then you're ripped right
Out of the ground like a fucking root
Ah, you simply cannot hide
From the ugly truth

You feel you must be wise
'Cause you could find yourself
Among a sea of smiling faces
Its a way I've never felt


Yeah, it kinda flies right into my face
And out the other side
The ugly truth leaves nothing to decide
The ugly truth makes every one of us a liar
Ugly

If you can dig a big enough hole to bury all your youth
No you still wont be prepared for the ugly truth
No you'll never be prepared for the ugly truth
You simply cannot hide from the ugly truth
Ugly
