Tell Me Something True
Unveiling Deceit: Echoes of Truth in Aaron Raitiere's Melody
Lyrics
You can't con a con, don't sugar coat it,
You cannot deceive a skilled deceiver; be straightforward.
The greatest play of all, baby I wrote it,
The best performance or act, I crafted it, suggesting a sense of authorship and control.
You tell me you love me,
You express love for me.
And I don't believe a word you have to say,
I doubt the sincerity of your words.
Because we both lie
We both engage in deception or dishonesty.
Even if it hurts, go ahead and say it,
Even if it's painful, speak the truth.
Even if it's out of tune, go ahead and play it,
Even if it's not perfect, go ahead and express it.
Lay it on the table, baby I can take it,
Be open and honest, I can handle it.
I'm sick and tired of lying,
Expresses weariness of dishonesty.
Tell me something true
Request for genuine and honest communication.
You drive around the block to hide your cigarettes,
You take evasive actions to conceal your habits.
You lie beside me every night, wishing it was him,
You share my bed but wish for someone else.
You're hoping that I fall in love with someone else so it won't be your fault,
You desire me to fall in love with another person to avoid blame.
But we both lie, we both lie
Emphasizes the mutual deception between both individuals.
Even if it hurts, go ahead and say it,
Encouragement to speak the truth even if it's painful.
Even if it's out of tune, go ahead and play it,
Encouragement to express feelings even if not perfectly done.
Lay it on the table, baby I can take it,
Express openness to honesty and truth.
I'm sick and tired of lying,
Reiteration of being tired of deception.
Tell me something true
Reiteration of the request for genuine communication.
Even if it hurts, go ahead and say it,
Repeat of the encouragement to speak the truth.
Even if it's out of tune, go ahead and play it,
Repeat of the encouragement for imperfect expression.
Lay it on the table, baby I can take it,
Repeat of openness to honesty.
I'm sick and tired of lying,
Repeat of expressing fatigue with deceit.
Tell me something true
Reiteration of the plea for genuine communication.
I'm sick and tired of lying,
Expresses weariness of dishonesty.
Tell me something true
Final plea for the truth.
