Truth Be Told

I tried to be an island
Yeah, I know, I know, I know
I tried to be a modern man
I know, I know, I know
I tried to be a picket fence
I broke, I broke, I broke
I wonder where my courage went
I broke, I broke, I broke

How toothless of me to think I could learn to wait
I know

Why am I so destitute
While I'm holding out for a soul?
I deal in absolutes when I try
To take control
Truth be told

I try to be more common sense
I know, I know, I know
A portrait of my elegance
I know, I know, I know
I whisper something delicate
I broke, I broke

How ruthless of me to think I can stand the chase
How foolish of me to think I can change my shape
Oh, I know

I am so destitute
When I'm holding out for a soul
I deal in absolutes when I try
To take control
Truth be told

And the crisis of me
My identity in blood
How spineless of me to think
I don't have the guts
I won't be toothless and I'll finally be enough
Oh, I know

I am so destitute
When I'm holding out for a soul
I deal in absolutes when I try
To take control
My body follows through
When the winter gets so cold
Truth be told
Truth be told
Truth be told
Truth be told
