Say Something True
Paint me a picture
Make me something beautiful
A chimney with curls of spiraling smoke
A steepled roof
An evergreen under the snow
Tell me a story
A dog-eared prophecy
You know how I love knowing how it ends
We can play along like we're surprised
We can pretend
You want me to believe
Such complicated things
I know that I can't reach you up there
But what if every ray of light you made came through
If you're the sun I'll spend my life leaning into you
I want to hear something, hear something real
So please just say something true
Make me a movie
With stop-motion animals
Inching closer every time I close my eyes
Make it fast like a reflection
Make it realer than real life
Send me a daydream
I can't snap out of it
A thousand blue roses pushing up through the floor
You just said to me that they were always down there waiting
You want me to believe
Such devastating things
I know that I can't reach you again
But what if every ray of light you made came through
If you're the sun I'll spend my life leaning into you
I want to feel something, feel something real
So please just say something true
Say something true
There's a moment when I wake up
Just before my eyes adjust
And I know that I can't reach you again
But what if every ray of light you made came through
If you're the sun I'll spend my life leaning into you
I want to feel something, feel something real
So please just say something true
(Say something true)
Make me something beautiful
A chimney with curls of spiraling smoke
A steepled roof
An evergreen under the snow
Tell me a story
A dog-eared prophecy
You know how I love knowing how it ends
We can play along like we're surprised
We can pretend
You want me to believe
Such complicated things
I know that I can't reach you up there
But what if every ray of light you made came through
If you're the sun I'll spend my life leaning into you
I want to hear something, hear something real
So please just say something true
Make me a movie
With stop-motion animals
Inching closer every time I close my eyes
Make it fast like a reflection
Make it realer than real life
Send me a daydream
I can't snap out of it
A thousand blue roses pushing up through the floor
You just said to me that they were always down there waiting
You want me to believe
Such devastating things
I know that I can't reach you again
But what if every ray of light you made came through
If you're the sun I'll spend my life leaning into you
I want to feel something, feel something real
So please just say something true
Say something true
There's a moment when I wake up
Just before my eyes adjust
And I know that I can't reach you again
But what if every ray of light you made came through
If you're the sun I'll spend my life leaning into you
I want to feel something, feel something real
So please just say something true
(Say something true)
