If I Could Tell the Truth

Darryl Worley

People just might see
Who I really am
Not who I have to be

I get so damn tired
Of playing by the rules
Afraid of what I'd lose
If I could tell the truth

[Chorus]
Nobody wants to listen when it comes down to this
We'd rather take the truth and twist it
Than to tell it like it is
I don't know how we got here, there's really no excuse
I do it to get by, but I wouldn't this lie
If I could tell the truth

If I could the truth
Girl, we'd end up in a fight
And I would still be wrong
And you would still be right

We Could stay right here
Another year or two
But I'm already gone
If I could tell the truth

[Chorus]

I do it to get by, but I wouldn't this lie
If I could tell the truth
