Truth Be Told (Live From Music City)
This is "Truth Be Told"
Lie number one
You're supposed to have it all together
And when they ask how you're doing
Just smile and tell them, "Never better"
Lie number two
Everybody's life is perfect except yours
So keep your messes and your wounds
And your secrets safe with you behind closed doors
Truth be told
The truth is rarely told, no
I say I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine
Oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine, but I'm not, I'm broken
And when it's out of control
I say it's under control, but it's not, and you know it
I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
When bein' honest is the only way to fix it
There's no failure, no fault
There's no sin you don't already know
So let the truth be told
There's a sign on the door
It says, "Come as you are," but I doubt it
'Cause if we lived like that was true
Every Sunday morning pew would be crowded, yeah
But didn't you say church should look more like a hospital
A safe place for the sick, the sinner, and the scarred, and the prodigals
Like me
Well, truth be told
The truth is rarely told
Oh, am I the only one who says I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine
Oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine? But I'm not, I'm broken
And when it's out of control
I say it's under control, but it's not, no, and you know it
I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
When bein' honest is the only way to fix it
There's no failure, no fault
There's no sin you don't already know
So let the truth be told
Can I really stand here unashamed
Knowin' that your love for me won't change?
Oh God, if that's really true
Then let the truth be told
I say I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine
Oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine, but I'm not, oh, I'm broken (I'm broken)
When it's out of control
I say it's under control, but it's not, and you know it
I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
When bein' honest is the only way to fix it
There's no failure, no fault
There's no sin you don't already know
Ooh, I know, oh, I know
There's no failure, no fault
There's no sin you don't already know
So let the truth be told
Love you guys
