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
