DON’T LOOK FOR THE TRUTH

Don’t look for the truth,
You won’t be able to take it,
Don’t look behind my eyes,
You won’t forget what you see.

I’ve walked through the darkest nights,
I’ve made mistakes I can’t erase,
I’ve lost the people I once loved,
And left my scars in every place.

I’m no good,
I’m all alone,
You’re the only one
I still call home.

Don’t look for the truth,
Don’t ask me where I’ve been,
Some things are better left behind,
Some doors should stay unseen.
Don’t look for the truth,
You won’t survive the pain,
Just hold me here tonight,
And don’t ask me again.

I’ve seen the bottom of my life,
I’ve slept with ghosts inside my head,
I’ve watched my better side disappear,
And buried words I should have said.

There are nights I can’t remember,
There are days I can’t forgive,
I don’t know how I made it here,
I don’t know why I still live.

I’m no good,
I’m on my own,
You’re the only one
I have left to hold.

Don’t look for the truth,
Don’t ask me where I’ve been,
Some things are better left behind,
Some doors should stay unseen.
Don’t look for the truth,
You won’t survive the pain,
Just hold me here tonight,
And don’t ask me again.

I know you want to save me,
But I’m too far gone to save,
I’ve been fighting with myself
Since the day I learned my name.

You don’t need to know my secrets,
You don’t need to know my past,
If you love me, love me now,
Because nothing good can last.

Don’t look for the truth,
Don’t ask me where I’ve been,
Some things are better left behind,
Some doors should stay unseen.
Don’t look for the truth,
You won’t survive the pain,
Just hold me here tonight,
And don’t ask me again.
