You Can Tell the Truth, Now

I seen it, girl

You finally made the paper

When your obituary said you died

I watched you as your fame just came and went

Read about your life through all the facts that you supplied

And I wanted to ask you...

What do you see when you look in my eyes?

What do you see when you look deep inside?

You can tell the truth now

I went outside to smoke some cigarettes

The birds were eating worms off of the floor

I seen you coming down the street, and you're waving

The birds are waving back at you

Then went to eat some more

And I wanted to ask you...

What did you see when you looked the last time?

What do you feel looking back through your life?

You can tell the truth now

I don't mind

Came inside and drew myself a bath

I seen you looking at me from the water

You would not smile or make a move at all

It was too much for me, you know

So I just drained the tub

And I wanted to ask you...

Did I feel bad enough when you went?

Am I even feeling or do I just pretend?

Can you even see inside of my heart?

And I wanted to ask you...

What do you see when you look in my eyes?

What do you see when you look in my eyes?

You can tell the truth now

I don't mind
