If I Could Tell The Truth Lyrics - Darryl Worley

If I could tell the truth, 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 

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 live this lie, if I could tell the truth 

If I could tell 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 

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 live this lie, if I could tell the truth 

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