Lie number 1 - youre supposed to have it all together
And when they ask how youre doing
Just smile and tell them never better
Lie number 2 - everybodys 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
I say, \"Im fine, yeah Im fine oh Im fine, hey Im fine\"
But Im not
Im broken
And when its out of control I say its under control
But its not
And you know it
I dont know why its so hard to admit it
When being honest is the only way to fix it
Theres no failure, no fall
Theres no sin you dont already know
So let the truth be told
Theres a sign on the door saying come as you are but I doubt it
If we lived like it was true every Sunday morning pew would be crowded
But didnt you say the church should look more like a hospital
A safe place for the sick and the sinner and and sick and the scarred and the prodigal
Truth be told
The truth is rarely told
Am I the only one who says...
Can I really stand here unashamed
And know that you love for me wont change?
Oh God If thats really true
Then let the truth be told
