[Verse 1]
I may not know where I'm going
But I'm on my way
Truth worked its ways into my dreams
And decided to stay

[Chorus]
But I would rather be hurt
I would be rather be hurt (By the truth)
Than consoled by hope and lies
Yes, I would rather be hurt (Rather be hurt)
I would rather be hurt (By the truth)
And let go of dreams I can live up to

[Verse 2]
I may not know where I'm going
But at least I can see
How ignorance and delusion were reaching for me

[Chorus]
Though I would rather be hurt (Rather be hurt)
I would be rather be hurt (By the truth)
Than consoled by hope and lies
Yes, I would rather be hurt (Rather be hurt)
I would rather be hurt (By the truth)
And let go of dreams I can live up to

[Outro]
Rather be hurt
Rather be hurt
By the truth
By the truth
By the truth
Rather be hurt
By the truth
Rather be hurt
By the truth
Yes, I would rather be hurt (Rather be hurt)
I would rather be hurt (By the truth)
By the truth
