Verse 1
I look into the mirror, what do I see?
A shadow of the person I used to be
We chase the wind, we run so fast
But everything we build, it fades at last
It’s a quiet whisper in the dead of night
A gentle reminder of what is right.
Verse 2
We build up walls made of pride and stone
Afraid to admit that we feel alone
We wear a smile like a heavy mask
But keeping it up is a hopeless task
The truth isn’t shouting, it doesn't demand
It just takes you gently right by the hand.
Chorus
The truth that hurts, but it is always there
It sets us straight, even when it's hard to bear
Speak the soft truth, let it set you free
The illusions of this world will never satisfy
Let the truth heal your soul, even if it's a bitter pill.
Verse 3
We have hidden so much behind sweet hypocrisy
Just wanting to be praised by the eyes of the crowd
But the spirit cries out in the deep silence
The inner truth never changes its face
Speak and be heard, there is no more shame
Because the truth is the only thing that changes the heart.
Verse 4
Lies look beautiful and smooth on the surface
But deep inside, they only rot away
We harden our lips with empty promises
Delaying the moment we accept what is real
But when the truth comes, it drives away the darkness
And the sunshine finally blazes within the heart.
Bridge
It’s not in the thunder, it’s not in the storm
It’s the quiet voice that keeps us warm
Know that the light always opens the way
Open your heart, there is no more hiding.
So let the rain fall and wash it away
All of the games that we used to play
Stop running in fear, let grace take over
Because an honest truth is better than a lifetime of false friends.
Chorus
The truth that hurts, but it is always there
It sets us straight, even when it's hard to bear
Speak the soft truth, let it set you free
The illusions of this world will never satisfy
Let the truth heal your soul, even if it's a bitter pill.
Outro
Just a soft whisper...
So much truth.
Let it heal, let it breathe...
Mercy and truth.
It aligns us...
It restores us...
Know the truth...
Soft truth.
