The truth about love it's great when you're in it Rolls out of bed picks her clothes off the floor Yesterday headache from the night before To late for makeup she turns out the lights And kisses herself goodbye Here car smells of cologne And the dreams that she sold For a chance at a life In the arms of a guy Who was never gonna be there The truth about love it's great when you're in it She's so punk rock but her heart ain't in it Telling her friends by the weekend She'll be over him It's her routine that is keeping her sane Another lost soul with somebody to blame She's staying busy but works been a drag And long days seem even longer Soon she'll have to go home Where she feels so alone To the bed that they shared Where he said that he cared And was never gonna leave her The truth about love it's great when you're in it She's so punk rock but her heart ain't in it Telling her friends by the weekend She'll be over him She'd beg and borrow Steal and save Pray for the day that never came It's all she ever wanted When that's not what she needs Oh, no, no Now she's all alone She can never go home Yeah she'd lie and deal Cheat and steal For a chance at a life In the arms of a guy The truth about love X4 Chorus
