I hate the way that my words come together at your expense   Wish that when I wrote I wouldn't have to be so honest   Show some tact or show some class or maybe just some respect   I'll respect you when you respect me, what can you expect?   I'm just being honest      I still fight the urge to call, I know there's nothing to say   I still love you and I think about you every day   It's not easy for me though I know I act like it is   Feel the pain that hurts so bad I guess I've gotta fake it   Just like I've gotta say this      That this song is the b-side to the truth   About how I really feel about you   And I know sometimes my words they burn like hell   But I still want you, if you can't tell      It's hard to see you I know that we've got to act like we're friends   Force a smile, fake a hug and try not to act nervous   "How am I? I'm good, no great, no perfect, life's just a treat"      Ask you question after question, I don't want you to leave   I just want you to see      That this song is the b-side to the truth   About how I really feel about you   And I know sometimes my words they burn like hell   I still want you, if you can't tell      I've got the keys if you wanna roll   I'll take you anywhere that you wanna go   We'll climb in the backseat like when we first met   I'll lay on my back while you lay on my chest      This song is the b-side to the truth
