the truth

(album: In Sickness & In Flames - 2020)

You are the truth I choose to bend myself around
You are the reason I got started and the reason I put it down
You are the truth I choose to bend myself around
You are the truth I choose to bend myself around

"Don't worry, I got you,"
Turn and say before you go
And now you got my number
Anything you need you let me know
How 'bout a glass of water?
Someone to drive me back to basics
Because the truth got hard to swallow
And my life just hurts my stomach
If you made the plan, I'd believe it

You are the truth I choose to bend myself around
You are the reason I got started and the reason I put it down
You are the truth I choose to bend myself around
I felt so awkwardly divided, you defined my lines somehow

The prettiest flower that I have ever seen in my life
You were wearing it in your hair
Said "We're in luck, special tonight, couples in stripes, half price"
So we sat down, two perfect strangers

You are the truth I choose to bend myself around
You are the reason I got started and the reason I put it down
You are the truth I choose to bend myself around
I felt so awkwardly divided, you defined my lines somehow

You are the truth I choose
You are the truth I choose

Which one of you wants to drive?
Ready to go for a ride
I'm talking West coast heady
Bet he thinks he can fly
Which one of you wants to fight?
I keep my hands by my side
I'm talking head first heavy baby, sailor dive
Which one of you wants to drive?
Ready to go for a ride
I'm talking West coast heady
Bet he thinks he can fly
Which one of yous wants to fight?
I keep my hands by my side
I'm talking head first heavy baby, sailor dive

If you made the plan, I'd believe it
If you made the plan, I'd believe it

You are the truth I choose
You are the truth I choose

You are the truth I choose to bend myself around
You are the reason I got started and the reason I put it down
You are the truth I choose to bend myself around
I felt so awkwardly divided, you defined my lines somehow

(If you want me to go
Just ask me to leave)
