You convince yourself that this all makes sense I'm the pain in your back I'm the mark on your wrist Now you're living on your own You sleep in motels A dollar in your hand Yourself to sell I won't stay here if you don't want me to You could never handle the truth But I can't blame you You convince yourself that you won't forget I'm the heat on your neck I'm the taste on your lips Now you're walking all alone You're begging for help You can't love them if you don't love yourself I won't stay here if you don't want me to You could never handle the truth But I can't blame you I won't stay here if you don't want me to You could never handle the truth But I can't blame you I won't stay here if you don't want me to You could never handle the truth But I can't blame you I won't stay here if you don't want me to You could never handle the truth But I can't blame you I won't stay here if you don't want me to You could never handle the truth But I can't blame you
