Truth Be Told

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Pre-Chorus] But truth be told, the truth is rarely told (No) [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 church should look more like a hospital? A safe place for the sick, the sinner and the scarred, and the prodigals Like me [Pre-Chorus] Well truth be told, the truth is rarely told Oh, am I the only one who says [Chorus] "I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine, oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine" But I'm not, I'm broken (Broken) And when it's out of control, I say "It's under control" But it's not and You know it (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 [Bridge] 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 [Chorus] I say, "I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine, oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine" But I'm not, I'm broken (Broken) And when it's out of control I say it's under control But it's not and You know it (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
