above the tears

cold hard truth

cold hard truth

why do we pretend we care ?

out of sight, out of mind

it is but a fleeting compassion

that simply disappears in time

because if push came to shove

really, what would you do ?

how far would you go out of your way ?

if it didn't benefit you

we usually talk a good game

but really, talk is cheap

and we are distracted so easily

when we only see defeat

the cold hard truth is simple

we don't really want all that fuss

and to save our own asses

we would just as soon ...

throw you under the bus
