Truth Be Told

If the truth be told, you were in the bedroom
 Trying to find a pillow with a little more headroom
 Trying to find a place where nobody could find you again
 If the truth be told, I was on the porch (Porsche?)
 Trying to fight a fire with a propane torch
 Thinking about the colour of the leaves before they fall in the fall
 If the truth be told, when things got weird
 All my friends told me I should grow a beard
 "And if you can't do that, don't quit your day job"
 If the truth be told he was outta line
 Trying to steal your heart before you stole mine
 Trying to make a mountain from a molehill
 If the truth be told, knock knock, who is it?
 Ships going down, do you wanna go with it?
 Either way I'm splitting town as soon as possible
 Wanna know the truth?
 I was thinking bout ships
 In the Halifax Harbour
 Before they blew the city to bits
 In 1917
 Truth be told, while you were getting drunk
 I was trying on clothes from your mothball truck
 Trying to figure out what it feels like to step inside your shoes...
