Theory Of A Deadman - The Truth Is... Album Lyrics

You know I'll be the one who gets fallin' down drunk
At my neighbor kid's soccer game
I got an '82 Fierro with a car seat in the middle
Broken down on the Interstate

I've got a beer-stained t-shirt looking like Joe Dirt
Something 'bout me just ain't right
I'm a cash-stealing, drug-dealing loser without any feeling
Gettin' trailer trash tonight

'Cause I'm a low life, and I'm lovin' it
I got the whole damn world in the palm of my hand
I'm a low life, so f*cking deal with it
No you can't change something that you don't understand

I'm thrilled to be a hillbilly, hate to have to deal with me
Probably just end in a fight
No sleeves, can't breathe, doesn't even phase me
Naked, sleeping like a baby tonight

'Cause I'm a low life, and I'm lovin' it
I got the whole damn world in the palm of my hand
I'm a low life, so f*cking deal with it
No you can't change something that you don't understand

Livin' it up, livin' it up
Being a low life
Livin' it up, livin' it up
Being a low life
Livin' it up, livin' it up
Being a low life
I'm livin' it up, livin' it up

A gun-packin', bitch-smackin', mess with me it's gonna happen
Lovin' life livin' in sin
Passed out on the floor, sorry just don't work no more
Givin' up or givin' in

Ah f*ck it
'Cause I'm a low life, and I'm lovin' it
I'm never gonna change as long as I live
I'm a low life, so f*ckin' deal with it
'Cause deep down I really know everyone is

'Cause we're low lives, and we're lovin' it
We got the whole damn world in the palm of our hand
'Cause we're low lives, so f*ckin' deal with it
No you can't change something that you don't understand

I'm livin' it up, livin' it up
Being a low life

The bitch came back the very next day
Oh the bitch came back thought she was a goner
But the bitch came back she couldn't stay away
Don't you know the bitch came back

I like her so much better when she's down on her knees
'Cause when she's in my face that's when I'm starting to see
That all my friends are laughing thinking that we be wrong
Well she's so f*cking stupid that she's singing along

The trouble with girls is they're all the same
Forget the diamonds and pearls they just want a ring
Before you know it you're like a dog on a leash
Well you can try and change the world but you won't change me

The bitch came back the very next day
Oh the bitch came back thought she was a goner
But the bitch came back she couldn't stay away
Don't you know the bitch came back

There she goes again just always breaking my balls
No matter what I do somehow it's always my fault
She says I must be cheating 'cause I turned off my phone
But that's the only frickin' way she'll leave me alone

The trouble with girls is it's never enough
They love to complain and they never shut up
They like to tell you the way it oughta be
Go on and tell the world but just don't tell me

The bitch came back the very next day
Oh the bitch came back thought she was a goner
But the bitch came back she couldn't stay away
Don't you know the bitch came back

It ain't a joke when I say I wanna throw you out
(I really mean it, I really mean it)
Look who's laughing now

The bitch came, the bitch came back
The bitch came, the bitch came back
The bitch came, the bitch came back
She just couldn't stay away

The bitch came back the very next day
Oh the bitch came back thought she was a goner
But the bitch came back she won't stay the f*ck away

The bitch came back the very next day
Oh the bitch came back thought she was a goner
The bitch came back she couldn't stay away
Don't you know the bitch came back

The bitch came back the very next day
Oh the bitch came back thought she was a goner
But the bitch came back she couldn't stay away
Don't you know the bitch came back

I should have know these walls would cave in
Should have never left my heart there on the line
'Cause when the shit hit the fan
All we ever had ended up lost in the fire

And now nothing's saved, nothing's caned
Was it all in vain?
'Cause I'm standing in the eye of the storm
And everything I've known is blowing away

I'm caught in a hurricane
I'm leaving here dead or alive
And I know that I'd be willing to feel the pain
If it got me to the other side
'Cause it only hurts, hurricane
Yeah, I can feel it hurt, hurricane

Remember how we were, we really were
Before this disaster came and tore us apart
It was the two of us, that was enough
The two of us, so in love

Till the wind blew high,
The wind of cry and lightning strikes
And now we're standing in the eye of the storm
And everything is gone, nothing remains

I'm caught in a hurricane
I'm leaving here dead or alive
And I know that I'd be willing to feel the pain
If it got me to the other side
'Cause it only hurts, hurricane
Yeah, I can feel it hurt, hurricane

I never thought it would end
You'll never understand
How we learn in the end
Like this

I'm caught in a hurricane
I'm leaving here dead or alive
And I know that I'd be willing to feel the pain
If it got me to the other side
'Cause it only hurts, hurricane
Yeah, I can feel it hurt, hurricane

Hurts, hurricane
Hurts, hurricane

I can't get you out of my head
God knows I've tried
But I just can't forget
Those crazy nights
And all the things that we did
I can't get you out of my head

Maybe it was the way you talked
Maybe it was the way you laughed
Well, I don't know just what it is
But I know I want you back

I can't get you out of my head
God knows I've tried
But I just can't forget
Those crazy nights
And all the things that we did
I can't get you out of my head

Maybe it was the way you smiled
Maybe it was the way you kissed
Well, I don't know just what it is
But I know want this to last

I can't get you out of my head
God knows I've tried
But I just can't forget
Those crazy nights
And all the things that we did
I can't get you out of my head

I keep trying to sleep
But I'm lying awake
I'm thinking about the love I fuelled away
But I won't let me go and I need you to know

That I, I, I, I
Can't get you out of my head

I can't get you out of my head
God knows I've tried
But I just can't forget
You're my whole life
I never had it this bad
I can't get you out of my head

Out of my head
Oh I can't get you out of my head
Oh I

I'll let the door, hit you right in the face
And when the check comes, I'll make ya pay
Don't have a car, I guess you're picking me up
And in the backseat, we'll be falling in love

My only job is, to lie on this couch
And while you're working, I'll be hanging out
Now don't get mad 'cause, you knew from the start
I was an asshole who would never go far

'Cause when you're really good to girls
Give them your entire world
They end up walking away, hey hey
They don't want a stand up guy
Rather have you cheat and lie
And do something they hate

Girls don't want a gentleman
They say they do but in the end
Girls don't want a gentleman
They want a loser like me
Girls don't want a gentleman
If you want to get to them
Girls don't want a gentleman
They want a loser like me

Your parents cry
When you bring me around
They raised you up
Just so I could take you down

There goes your life
Right before their eyes
I'll have ya barefoot
Pregnant going out of your mind

'Cause when you're really good to girls
Give them your entire world
They end up walking away, hey hey
They don't want a stand up guy
Rather have you cheat and lie
And do something they hate

Girls don't want a gentleman
They say they do but in the end
Girls don't want a gentleman
They want a loser like me
Girls don't want a gentleman
If you want to get to them
Girls don't want a gentleman
They want a loser like me

I used to be a nice guy
But that don't get you anywhere
So now I am just a piece of shit, idiot
Who's too stupid to care

When you give a girl respect
Treat her like she is the best
You're nothing to her

She'd rather have you playing games
Piss her off and make her wait
If you want to do her

Girls don't want a gentleman
They say they do but in the end
Girls don't want a gentleman
They want a loser like me
Girls don't want a gentleman
If you want to get to them
Girls don't want a gentleman
They want a loser like me

Girls don't want a gentleman
They say they do but in the end
Girls don't want a gentleman
They want a loser like me
Girls don't want a gentleman
If you want to get to them
Girls don't want a gentleman

They want a loser like me
They want a loser like me
They want a loser like me

Rather be punched in the face
Be sprayed with some mace
Than be head over heals
I'd rather be hit by a truck
Then be totally f*cked
I know you know how it feels
I'd rather be buried alive
Than be living a lie with somebody like you

Love is hell
Love is shit
Can't you tell I've had enough of it
Raise your hands, let me hear you yell
Love is hell
Love is hell
Love is hell

I'd rather be broke on the street
Than be losing sleep over something you said
I'd rather spend the weekend in jail
And be stuck without bail
Than have you stuck in my head
I'd rather just play with myself
Than deal with somebody else and get totally screwed

Love is hell
Love is shit
Can't you tell I've had enough of it
Raise your hands, let me hear you yell
Love is hell
Love is hell
Love is hell

I'd rather be stabbed and be cut into ribbons
I'd rather be dead than the way you got me living
I'd rather be shot in the heart and be bleeding
I'd rather be left here alone than be needed

Love is hell
Love is shit
Can't you tell I've had enough of it
Raise your hands, let me hear you yell
Love is hell
Love is hell
Love is hell

Love ain't right
Just as well I'll be alone tonight
Raise your hands, let me hear you yell
Love is hell
Love is hell
Love is hell

I'd rather be stabbed and be cut into ribbons
I'd rather be dead than the way you got me living
(Love is hell)
I'd rather be shot in the heart and be bleeding
I'd rather be left here alone than be needed
(Love is hell)

You lie about you, and you lie about me
You lie about your ex's and the STDs
You grew up rich in the Florida Keys
You lie about everything

You lie about a baby being on the way
You lie to yourself if you think I'll stay
It's just a big game I don't wanna play
You lie about everything

You think you'll get everything you want
But you ain't gonna get it from me

The truth is,
It was all pretend
All along I've been sleeping with your best friend
The truth is,
I really hate your face
You were never all that hot in the first place
Bad in bed, you suck at giving head
You've gone and got me thinking I'd be better off dead
The truth is
You're f*cking useless
The truth is
I lied about everything

You lie to your folks, say every thing's fine
What you don't know, rents two months behind
Tell all your friends that we have a great time
You lie about everything

You lie when you said your tits are real
They're about as fake as the way we feel
You're so full of shit how can I deal
'Cause you lie about everything

I don't think we stand a chance
Watch you said, you can't take back

The truth is,
It was all pretend
All along I've been sleeping with your best friend
The truth is,
I really hate your face
You were never all that hot in the first place
Stuttered in bed just like you're givin' head
You've gone and got me thinking I'd be better off dead
The truth is
You're f*cking useless
The truth is
I lied about everything

Well, you lied about you and I lied about me
Now that you know I'm finally free
One last thing I'll say that's true
I lied when I said "I'm in love with you"

The truth is,
It was all pretend
All along I've been sleeping with your best friend
The truth is,
I really hate your face
You were never all that hot in the first place
Your ass is fat and you ain't that smart
Every time you talk you got me falling apart
The truth is
You're f*cking useless
The truth is
I lied about everything
I lied about everything

I lied, I lied, I lied, I lied, I lied

Did you ever picture life like this
No shooting star to grant your wish
Are you everything you hoped you'd be
I got somewhere in between

You dropped your miracle down a wishing well
And prayed for luck to cast it's spell
To bring you closer to your dreams
That always seem just out of reach

You pray to God, don't know when
But you feel the current pull you in
You try to keep your head above water
It's never been harder
Even when it feels hopeless
You're gonna get through this

Head above water
Gotta fight from going under
Even when it feels useless to wish
You're gonna get through this

Have you ever felt like giving in
Tried for hours but just can't win
Tell yourself you're not good enough
The struggle alone is just too much

No one's there to hear you scream
You gasp for air but cannot breathe
Did you ever think you'd see the day
When you'd watch your life get washed away

You pray to God, don't know when
But you feel the current pull you in
You try to keep your head above water
It's never been harder
Even when it feels hopeless
You're gonna get through this

Head above water
Gotta fight from going under
Even when it feels useless to wish
You're gonna get through this

Did it ever hurt so bad
That the thought of feeling lost
Would never end
Well you will think again

Try to keep your head above water
It's never been harder
When it feels hopeless
You're gonna get through this

Head above water
Gotta fight from going under
Even when it feels useless to wish
You're gonna get through this

Your head above water, never been harder
Tryin' to keep your head above water
Has never been harder
You're gonna get through this
You're gonna get through this

Remember those good times we had
I thought you were my friend
What I felt to be a dream
Just a nightmare in the end
I trusted you, you trusted me
Nothing could go wrong
Until I finally figured out
You were evil all along

What I'd give to see you gone
I never felt this way before
I'd love to see that face you make
When I walk out the door

'Cause God can't save you from all your sins
When you threw your life away you let the devil in
Now I can't save you, I know you too well
Like everyone and everything you drag me, you drag me to hell

Drag me
Drag me
Drag me

Trapped inside these prison walls
With no way to escape
What I felt to be my life
Was just a big mistake
I thought of you, I thought it through
Everything was clear
The only way from this cage
Was for you to disappear

What I'd give to see you gone
I'm sure you've heard this all before
I'd love to see that face you make
When I walk out the door

'Cause God can't save you from all your sins
When you threw your life away you let the devil in
Now I can't save you, I know you too well
Like everyone and everything you drag me, you drag me to hell

Drag me
Drag me
Drag me
You drag me to hell

I hope you had fun
Now that we're done
It's over this time
I'm on to your lies
Get it through your head
Our love is dead
I don't think about you
No, I don't think about you anymore, anymore

'Cause God can't save you from all your sins
When you threw your life away you let the devil in
No, I can't save you, I know you too well
Like everyone and everything you drag me, you drag me to hell

Drag me
Drag me
Drag me
You drag me to hell

Drag me
Drag me
Drag me
You drag me to hell

Drag me
Drag me
Drag me
You drag me to hell

I feel so dirty in my hotel room
I got a king size bed that smells like cheap perfume
And I say to myself, "Tyler what were you thinking"
(Tyler what were you thinking)

My head is heavy from all the drinks last night
I had two too many Jägers I don't feel so right
Am I crazy as hell or is the whole place spinning
Oh I just made a big mistake
I am caught in a nightmare wide awake

I've got girls outside my window
And girls outside my door
I got a life that's too damn easy
And I can't take it anymore
Yeah I got a house in every city
Got so much to lose
I got everything any guy could want
But all I really want is you

I'm feeling guilty for all the things I've done
I've got a stomach full of knots and cold heart is numb
Can I live with myself or will I get what's coming

I say I'm sorry and that there's nothing to fear
But it all went to hell without you here
And I'm hating myself so I guess I'll keep drinking
So please just stay and forget this day
'Cause you can't be the one that got away

I got whiskey on the table
And whiskey on the floor
I got friends who will forget me
Banging on the tuba's door
Yeah I got a house in every city
I got so much to lose
I got everything any guy could want
But all I really want is you

What was I thinking
What was I thinking
What was I thinking
When all I really want is you

Please, please come and save my soul tonight
Please, please come and make everything right

I got girls outside my window
And girls outside my door
Got girls just dying to take their clothes off
Yeah I got a house in every city
I got too much to lose
I got everything any guy could want
But all I really want is you

What was I thinking
What was I thinking
What was I thinking
When all I really want is you

What was I thinking
What was I thinking
What was I thinking
Yeah when all I really want is you

(Tyler what were you thinking)

I remember all the summer days
Drinking wine in the sunshine
I hope it never leaves
And I remember all the summer nights
Staring at you in the moonlight
I hope you never leave 'cause baby
You're so good to me
You have all that all that I ever need

It's easy to love you
So easy to love you
Ooh you know it's true
The best part of being with you
To know you're with me
It's not so hard to say
It's easy to love you

I remember all those winter days frozen
In the cold tryin' to get you home
Should I be moving in, we can be together then
Remember spending all those winter nights
Stayin' inside by the warm fire
Yeah you gotta know that I can never let you go
You and I have the rest of our lives to say

It's easy to love you
So easy to love you
Ooh you know it's true
The best part of being with you
To know you're with me
It's not so hard to say
It's easy to love you

Can anybody else see it?
Mm, can anybody else see what I do?
Can anybody else feel it?
Oh, can anybody else feel the way I do?
But now I'm with you

Hard to forget all the moments when
We'd be sitting there hoping it would never end
'Cause this is meant to be
So baby, will you marry me?

It's easy to love you
So easy to love you
Ooh, you know it's true
The best part of being with you
To know you are with me
It's not so hard to say

It's easy to love you
You and me will be together
I know our love will last forever
You and me will be together
I know our love will last forever
You know it's true
The best part of being with you
You're easy to love

Woke up screaming in bed
The silence taunts me
It's like I am there again
But this nightmare calms me down
The fire licks my skin
I feel it burn away
Pulling stream overhead
My heart beats deafening
I've never been so afraid

But we were men
We walk the front lines
We defend our country with our lives
We pretend to see truth in all these lies
'Cause in the end we were men

I close my eyes to hide
Their faces haunt me
My faith is hard to find
Your picture calms me down
I can't cope with the pain
These pills don't work
They just leave me the same
I feel so weak today
You made me strong
So why did you take it away?
I'm trapped inside the afraid

But we were men
We walk the front lines
We defend our country with our lives
We pretend to see truth in all these lies
'Cause in the end we were

Soldiers don't feel
Though they do what they're told
You send them to war
But they never go home
You feel on their bones
They fought through their veins
We cry for their souls
That just can't take

We live to fight another day
And serve our country without dismay
For those who take us from our homes
May God have mercy on their souls

We were men
We walk the front lines
We defend our country with our lives
We pretend to see truth in all these lies
'Cause in the end we were men

[Repeat: x3]
We were men
