The truth about love comes at 3 a.m.
You wake up fucked up and you grab a pen
And you say to yourself
Im gonna figure it out, Im gonna crack that code
Gonna break it break it down
Im tired of all these questions
And, now its just annoying
Cause, no one has the answer
So I guess its up to me
To find

The truth about love is
It comes, and it goes
A strange fascination with it is lips on toes
Morning breath, bedroom eyes on a smiling face
Sheet marks rug burn, and a sugar glaze
The shock and the awe that can eat your raw
Is this the truth about love (the truth about love)

I think you just may be perfect
Youre the person of my dreams
Ive never ever ever ever been this happy
But now something has changed
And the truth about love is its all a lie
I thought you were the one, and I hate goodbyes

Oh, you want the truth?

The truth about love its nasty and salty
Its the regret in the morning, its the smelling of armpits
Its wings, and songs
And trees, and birds
Its all the poetry that you ever heard
Terror coup détat life line forget-me-nots
Its the hunt and the kill
The schemes and the plots
The truth about love is its blood, and its guts
Purebreads, and mutts
Sandwiches without the crust
It takes your breath, cause it leaves a scar
But those untouched never got never got very far
Its rage and its hate
And a sick twist of fate
And thats the truth about love
The truth about love

I think you just may be perfect
Youre the person of my dreams
Ive never ever ever ever been this happy
But now something has changed
And the truth about love is its all a lie
I thought you were the one, and I hate goodbyes

Oh, you can lose your breath and
Oh, you can shoot a gun and
Convinced youre the only one thats ever felt this way before
It hurts inside the hurt within and
It folds together pocket thin and
Its whispered by the angels lips and
It can turn you into a son-of-a-bitch, man!

The truth, the truth, the truth about love is
Truth, the truth, the truth about love is
Truth, the truth, the truth about love is
Truth, the truth, the truth about love is
Truth about love
