(If What You Say Is) True (Stripped)

We walked a path so clear

Promises, every word sincere

Those words echoed in the night

Fade away, losing their light

Burn it down she said to me

Burn it down until I can't breathe

Solace in our memories

In the laughter, sweet melodies

If what you say is true

And it’s over

Why does truth hurt now

True love’s now broken

If what you say is true

Then it’s over

In the quiet of the dawn

Morning whispers long since gone

The places loved now stand silent and bare

Echo emptiness that we now share

Strange addiction I can’t bear

Only remembering the way you care

If what you say is true

And it’s over

Why does truth hurt now

True love’s now broken

If what you say is true

Then it’s over
