Tell the truth to yourself and the rest will fall in place
Tell the truth to yourself and the rest will fall in place

I lied to the doctor
I lied to my lover
I wanna make amends but where do I start
Tell the truth to yourself, and the rest will fall in place
Tell the truth to yourself, and the rest will fall in place

Tell the truth to yourself
I could make my mother, my father
my sister, my brother, my lover, my neighbor
my friends all happy
Give of myself whatever they ask
But without this single truth
it is only emptiness that I cast, a happiness
that will not last, but I'm not here for that
for what does happiness help without this simple truth
given to thyself

I was the coward, I that strangled your heart
I wanna make a amends but where do I start
Tell the truth to yourself and the rest will fall in place
Tell the truth to yourself and the rest will fall in place
