Truth Be Told

Lyrics

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
 But truth be told
 The truth is rarely told, now
 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 being honest is the only way to fix it
 There's no failure, no fall
 There's no sin You don't already know
 So let the truth be told
 ♪
 There's a sign on the door, says, "Come as you are", but I doubt it
 'Cause if we lived like that was true, every Sunday morning pew would be crowded
 But didn't You say the 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
 And you know it
 I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
 When being honest is the only way to fix it
 There's no failure, no fall
 There's no sin You don't already know
 So let the truth be told
 Can I really stand here unashamed
 Knowing 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
 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 being honest is the only way to fix it
 There's no failure, no fall
 There's no sin You don't already know
 Yeah, I know
 There's no failure, no fall
 There's no sin You don't already know
 So let the truth be told
