Scratched a heart on your door then I showed myself outside

Lashed my soul ‘cross this twin-v horse and rode off in the night

Guess you noticed I’m gone and the old mornin’ sun’s castin’ shadows with questions inside

So the truth in this letter at dawn will shed a new light

G

Truth is, I lied when I said I’d always be your whippin’ pet

Em

I lied when I said I didn’t mind the hurt I guess

C

C

When I pleaded and stated I needed you just to survive (I lied)

G

Truth is, last night when you tore my heart apart my mind began

Em

Never thinkin’ ’bout thinkin’ like your fool again

C

And the freedom that filled me kept spellin’ out truth as I’d write

G

Truth is I lied….

Saw an image of you where the highway touched the sky

It was blockin’ my view so I steered that thought aside

Now the mornin’ and me ride a cold memory past tomorrow to some other town

G

Where we’ll never care whether this truth was lost or found
