Found Our Verity

Şarkı Sözleri

[Verse 1] You set the ledger by the kitchen light Beside the cup with its chipped blue rim You said the numbers didn’t add up right And let the long-held quiet settle in [Pre-Chorus] No polished answer, no easy defense Just the plain hard shape of what happened then [Chorus] Tell it straight, let the whole thing stand Every rough edge, every mark of the hand Truth may cost what a lie can save But it leaves us a road we can walk by day Say what is, and let it be That’s where you found your verity [Verse 2] The old clock stopped at a quarter to two Rain tapped time on the window frame You named the part you had played in it too No borrowed blame, no softer name [Pre-Chorus] The room felt smaller, then somehow wide With nothing left for us to hide [Chorus] Tell it straight, let the whole thing stand Every rough edge, every mark of the hand Truth may cost what a lie can save But it leaves us a road we can walk by day Say what is, and let it be That’s where you found your verity [Bridge] A clean white page won’t change the past But a first true sentence can make room at last You looked at me; I stayed right there And we began with what we could bear [Final Chorus] Tell it straight, let the whole thing stand Every rough edge, every mark of the hand Truth may cost what a lie can save But it leaves us a road we can walk by day Say what is, and let it be That’s where we found our verity [Outro] Say what is, and let it be We found our way through verity
