Karaoké Truth Be Told (with Carly Pearce) Matthew West

Lie number one

You're supposed to have it all together

And when they ask how you're doin' 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 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

'Cos if we lived like that was true every Sunday mornin' pew would be crowded

But didn't You say church should look more

But didn't You say church should look more like a hospital like a hospital

A safe place for the sick

The sinner and the scarred

A safe place for the sick

The sinner and the scarred and the prodigals like me and the prodigals like me

But truth be told the truth is rarely told

The truth is rarely told

Oh am I the only one

Oh am I the only one

Who says I'm fine, yeah I'm fine

Oh I'm fine, hey I'm fine

Who says I'm fine, yeah I'm fine

Oh I'm fine, hey I'm fine

But I'm not

I'm broken

But I'm not

I'm broken

And when it's out of control

I say it's under control

And when it's out of control

I say it's under control but it's not and You know it but it's not and You know it

I don't know why it's so hard to admit it

I don't know why it's so hard to admit it

When bein' honest is the only way to fix it

When bein' honest is the only way to fix it

There's no failure, no fall

There's no sin

There's no failure, no fall

There's no sin

You don't already know

You don't already know

So let the truth

So let the truth be told 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

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
