Lyrics of 'Truth Is' by Maisie Peters

Hey, baby, won't you get up out your dress?
It's just the way you're talkin', it's just your head
Hey, baby, he's just something you regret
He's not a saviour or the best you'll ever get

And that's real
But it doesn't stop the lump in my throat
Time will heal
But I'll always be a little bit broke

Truth is you were the blow behind the bruises
You weren't in love but I think I confused it
I see it like I always knew it
And it was ruthless in cold blood
Still you believe there's no wound and no grudge
Who took all of my trust then abused it
Truth is, you did

Hey, baby, all I ever did was care
You played a bitter game of musical chairs
Hey, baby, I would fall and you would glare
I was a failure till I couldn't fuckin' bear it no more

And I'll never get back months of my life (mm)
Time will cure
But you're never gonna know what that's like
Mm-mm

Truth is you were the blow behind the bruises
You weren't in love, but I think I confused it
I see it like I always knew it
And it was ruthless, in cold blood
Still you believe there's no wound and no grudge
Who took all of my trust, then abused it (oh-oh-oh)
Truth is, you did

Did I rile up all your demons?
Did I give you any reason?
Or did I love you?
Did I just love you?
Was it useful? Was it worth it?
Did you think that I deserved it?
'Cause I didn't
I just loved you

Truth is you were the blow behind the bruises
You weren't in love and if I could undo it
I'd never have been yours to ruin
Who got off with no court and no blame?
Who is out there living with no shame?
Who took my very worst fear and proved it?
Truth is, you did
