"Home Truths" lyrics

Make a bed you gotta lie in
Dark room you go and cry in
And a basement for a box of old dreams
There's a TV in the living room
You tune in in the afternoon
And only see what you wanna see
Home truths...

We close up all the shutters
Paint the walls a different color
While we dance around each other in the halls
We polish up the mirrors
And we line up all the pictures
But inevitably they're all gonna fall

If we keep it together
Keep our cards close
Never break character
We'll never need to know the home truths...
I wanna tell 'em all to you
Home truths...
When you gonna tell me yours too?

When you gonna tell me yours too?

We throw parties on the patio
For friends of friends that we don't know
We catch each other's eyes across the room
Outside hanging dirty laundry
Looks like white sails on a calm sea
Searching for a way to tell the truth

If we keep it together
Keep our cards close
Never break character
We'll never need to know the home truths...
I wanna tell 'em all to you
Home truths...
When you gonna tell me yours too?

Let's burn it all down
'Til there's ashes on the ground
Until there's nothing left to lose
But home truths...

Home truths...
I wanna tell 'em all to you
Home truths...
When you gonna tell me yours too?
Home truths...
I wanna tell 'em all to you
Home truths...
When you gonna tell me yours too?

When you gonna tell me
When you gonna tell me
When you gonna tell me yours too?
When you gonna tell me
When you gonna tell me
When you gonna tell me yours too?
When you gonna tell me
When you gonna tell me
When you gonna tell me yours too?
