The Lousy Truth lyrics

Girl, I've been thinking a lot of
'bout who we could have been
if i was back home
just chilling with you and all my friends

But dear I'm gone
and that's the lousy truth

For the past 3 years
I swear i've been a better man
then who I've become
i know i know i know I let you down

But I've been gone
for to damn along

So if you go away right now
then i can't guarantee
that i won't break your heart
But if you go and stay then baby
i will hope and pray that you will run away
Cause dear breaks my heart
to see you here

So shine outward not inward
You've been selfish little girl
for the past 3 years
I've been through more than you can know
and God I don't want you to know

what I have been through
cause you just wouldn't understand
you're just a girl with some issues
as bad as it may sound




But you're the girl
who's been driving me mad

So if you go away right now
then i can't guarantee
that i won't break your heart
But if you go and stay then baby
i will hope and pray that you will run away
Cause dear breaks my heart
to see you here

So go to school in chicago
find a new boy, a new life
a whole new set of friends
Cause all that i'll ever do is break your heart
and dear breaks my heart
to see you here

And dear breaks my heart
to see you here

But just so you know...

I've been thinking a lot of
'bout who we could've been
if i was back home
just chilling with you and all my friends

But dear I'm gone
and that's the lousy truth
