Truth Be Told (Live From Music City) - Carly Pearce/Matthew West

Lyrics by：Matthew West/AJ Pruis

Composed by：Matthew West/AJ Pruis

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

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 it 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

Knowin' that you 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

Oh 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

Oh I know

Oh I know

There's no failure no fall

There's no sin you don't already know

So let the truth be told
