Scott, Jake - Truth Be Told Lyrics
There's nothing good within me
If I'm honest
And If I'm honest, there are times
I will try
To dress up all my darkness
All along
But it's a lie
If truth be told, I'm nothing
On my own
The only thing I know for sure
Is that I don't know a thing
To be sure
If you only knew
You'd run far and fast away
From me, Oh God
Hear my plea
Cause all I see
Is this darkness that is buried
Within me
So darling don't dare trust me
If I say I'm ok
If truth be told, I do the things
That I hate everyday
Anyway
If ever I may think
Myself to be more than a wretched man
Forgive me, and please don't let me
Ruin myself once again with these chains
That I cannot sever
I'll do whatever it takes just to make sure
My head stays above
This water that is filling my lungs
If only I could do
The good I want to do
I'd leave this place forever
And I would never
Turn back around just to fight this old war
Because I'm broken and I'm begging
For something more

Scott, Jake Truth Be Told Comments
Deep song. I can feel the emotion.
There’s nothing good within me if I’m honest. And If I’m honest, there are times I will try to dress up all my darkness and make it seem like it was light all along, but it’s a lie.
If truth be told, I’m nothing on my own. The only thing I know for sure is that I don’t know a thing to be sure.
If you only knew what I’ve been prone to do, you’d run far and fast away from me. Oh God, hear my plea cause all I see is this darkness that is buried within me
So darling don’t dare trust me if I say I'm ok. If truth be told, I do the things that I hate everyday anyway.
If ever I may think myself to be more than a wretched man, forgive me, and please don't let me ruin myself once again with these chains that I cannot sever. I'll do whatever it takes just to make sure my head stays above this water that is filling my lungs.
If only I could do the good I want to do. I'd leave this place forever and I would never turn back around just to fight this old war, because I'm broken and I'm begging for something more.
