Dont dress it up but dont beat around the bush
And dont cover it up but dont push it underground
And dont keep it inside and dont edit and redact
And no dumbing it down
And dont fake it, just
And I can handle the truth
I can cope with whatever youre holding back
No need to sugar coat
I know how to mend
I can rise high above the ashes
Ill re-invent
I will re-emerge
Dont dress it up but dont beat around the bush
And dont cover it up but dont push it underground
And dont keep it inside and dont edit and redact
And no dumbing it down
And dont fake it, just (break it to me)
I know how to mend
I can rise high above the ashes
Ill re-invent
I will re-emerge
