Текст The Avett Brothers – Tell The Truth

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

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
