Home Truth Lyrics - Goodbye Cruel World - Elvis Costello

I hung up the phone tonight 

Just as you said I love you 

Once this would have been coincidence 

Now these things start to bother me 

You still close your eyes when I kiss you 

And I close mine too 

But we didn't open them again 

Quite as wide as we should 

This is where the home truth ends 

This is where the home truth ends

Does your touch feel the same as it should do 

Or is it someone quite similar 

Who killed me with kindness last night 

Now do I look at all familiar? 

But none of these things seem to matter 

Since we've grown apart 

I'd put back the pieces of what's shattered 

But I don't know where to start 

This is where the home truth ends 

This is where the home truth ends 

This is where the home truth ends 

And I feel like a clown 

It's tearing me up 

It's tearing me down 

Photos 

You say which are the lies that you tell me 

Well where do I begin? 

So I turn on the TV again 

And the world comes crashing in 

Is it my shirt or my toothpaste 

That is whiter than white? 

Is it the lies that I tell you 

Or the lies that I might? 

This is where the home truth ends 

This is where the home truth ends 

Chorus
