Leftmore - It's Only Truth (If It's True to You, Too) Lyrics

I've got ways of telling the truth
Pictures fade but they still hold you
I spend my days just holding the proof
Now it's too late to show it to you
And hot on its trail, I dusted for clues
Your smile stayed a reflection of you
And opened the gate, so I followed through
Now I feel crazy for thinking about you

'Cuz it's only Truth if it's true to you, too
And if it's not proof, then I have nothing to prove

Well, it brings my pain validating my blues
My smile faint in the absence of you
And I try new paint but the color's a ruse
I just can't un-paint the colors in you
And I found new games to better my mood
Bridges I make to get over you
And I can play them however I choose
Now matter the take, I always hear you

'Cuz it's only Truth if it's true to you, too
And if it's not proof, then I have nothing to prove

Little changed but your smile is new
The price I'd pay to bring it back to you
Your muscles strain, say, "You don't have to
I'm more than O.K." I just can't believe you
So, am I a still-frame unable to move?
Or, am I the stage, Just a floor without you?
Am I so vain to think you'd want me to
Or am I insane still thinking I know you?

'Cuz it's only Truth if it's true to you, too
And if it's not proof, then I have nothing to prove
If it's not the same, I have nothing to say
It's not my place anymore, but your heart is a space I adore
And I've got my ways of telling the truth
Pictures fade but they still hold you

And if I'm a stranger now
I'll just smile at you
Maybe fumble a phrase
Cause a smile or two, the way you used to
