[Verse]
Reflections bend, they twist and stall
Crack like riddles, on the wall
You asked for answers
Here they come
Truth is a bullet
Better run
[Prechorus]
You begged for fire
Now you're burned
The lesson's harsh
The tables turned
[Chorus]
You can't handle the truth
Can you
It's sharp
It bites
It cuts right through
You can't handle the truth
Oh no
It’s chaos wrapped in what you know
[Verse 2]
Your house of cards
It's tumbling down
Each lie a king
Now lost its crown
The clock is ticking
Can't unwind
The truth’s a hammer
Not so kind
[Chorus]
You can't handle the truth
Can you
It screams
It laughs
It echoes too
You can't handle the truth
Oh no
It’s the weight you’re too scared to hold
[Bridge]
You said
"Give it to me
Don’t hold back"
Now it’s a freight train off the track
You can't unhear
You can't unsee
Truth’s a cage
And you’ve lost the key
[Chorus]
You can't handle the truth
Can you
It screams
It laughs
It echoes too
You can't handle the truth
Oh no
It’s the weight you’re too scared to hold
