Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You ask how I’m doing
I nod
Say “I’m fine”
But these shaking hands on the keys
Tell a different line
All the breaks in my breathing
Fall between the notes
What I bury in small talk
Spills out when I’m alone
[Chorus]
‘Cause pianos don’t lie
They hear every silence
Every “I’m okay” that’s almost true
Pianos don’t lie
They echo the quiet
They say what my throat can’t push through
If you want the truth of me tonight
Listen
Not to words
Pianos don’t lie
[Verse 2]
I’ve practiced my stories
Polished every phrase
But my fingers slip on the part
Where I watched us fade
Every cracked little octave
Holds the nights I hid
How do chords know the things
I never admit?
[Chorus]
‘Cause pianos don’t lie
They hear every silence
Every “I’m okay” that’s almost true
Pianos don’t lie
They echo the quiet
They say what my throat can’t push through
If you want the truth of me tonight
Listen
Not to words
Pianos don’t lie
[Bridge]
All the grief I never grieved
All the love I never claimed
Every memory I leave
Comes back calling out my name
So I press into the dissonance
Let the damage ring
If you’re somewhere in the audience
This is what I couldn’t sing (to you)
[Chorus]
‘Cause pianos don’t lie
They hear every silence
Every “I’m okay” that’s almost true
Pianos don’t lie
They echo the quiet
They say what my throat can’t push through
If you want the truth of me tonight
Come sit by my side
Listen past the words
Pianos don’t lie
