Ugly Truth Rock Lyrics - Matthew Sweet

You don't want to die 

But the living gets you down 

We want you to act like nothing's 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 

It's 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 won't 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
