The way you feel, the past you lived
The things you did
It don't matter to me
For what it's worth, just don't lie to me (uh ha)

Girl, I'm really trying hard to understand
I want to move on and put it in the past
'Cause you claim that you ain't doing nothing
Must be my insecurities (huh)

What I know, I can't hold it inside of me
It's gon' drive me insane
That's how I know the truth hurts (truth hurts)
