She said I’m not sorry for being real
I thought why so hard when we just met
That’s no way to start a love affair
But being strong are the only words she left

I wondered if that was a good thing
You know how people can be
She’s trying too hard to prove herself
Somebody made her feel less than me

Truth is hard
You don’t have to talk about it so much
It makes me wonder if you’re really full of doubt
You don’t have to talk about it
But is it true
Is love something you’d rather live without?

You never gave me a chance
All you can think about is your past
Too bad I wasn’t in it
Maybe you wouldn’t be so downcast

Down to earth
We both survived
We want more
Are we still alive?

Truth is hard
You don’t have to talk about it so much
It makes me wonder if you’re really full of doubt
You don’t have to talk about it
But is it true
Am I somebody you’d rather live without?
