Text: Jamie O'Hara. The Cold Hard Truth.

You don't know who I am,
But I know all about you.
I've come to talk to you tonight,
About the things I've seen you do.
I've come to set the record straight;
I've come to shine the light on you.
Let me introduce myself:
I am the cold hard truth.

There is a woman we both know,
I think you know the one I mean.
She gave her heart and soul to you,
You gave her only broken dreams.
You say you're not the one to blame,
For all the heartache she's been through.
I say you're nothin' but a liar:
I am the cold hard truth.

All of your life, that's how it's been;
Lookin' out for number one.
Takin' more than you give;
Movin' on when you're done.

With her you could've had it all:
Family and love to last.
If you had any sense at all,
You'd go and beg her to come back.

You think that you're a real man,
But you are nothin' but a fool.
The way you run away from love;
The way you try to play it cool.
I'm gonna say this just one time,
Time is running out on you.
You best remember me my friend:
I am the cold hard truth.

You best remember me my friend:
I am the cold hard truth.
