[Verse 1]
Sleep lay behind me like a broken ocean
Strange waking dreams before my eyes unfold
You lay there sleeping like an open doorway
I stepped outside myself and felt so cold
[Pre-Chorus]
Take a look at my new toy
It'll blow your head in two, oh boy
[Chorus]
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
[Verse 2]
I thought about it and my dream was broken
I clutch at images like dying breath
And I don't wanna make a fuss about it
The only certain thing in life is death
[Pre-Chorus]
Take a look at my new toy
It'll blow your head in two, oh boy
[Chorus]
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
[Bridge]
Where you want to be
Won't you ever see
[Chorus]
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone, no
