[Verse]
I'm watching a movie I made about my life
In sepia tones
I'm seeing it all for what seems like the thousandth time
My childhood home
[Pre-Chorus]
We're at the part where I am hiding on the roof
Wondering if anyone can bear to hear the truth
I didn't know how to talk about my feelings
I still don't
[Verse]
I watch my mother calling my name
As she walks through the house to find me
She lost her first son when we lived in Pittsburgh
Before I was born
[Pre-Chorus]
No one ever talked about him, they thought that they were being brave
But they couldn't fool me, I could see it in their faces
I didn't know how to talk about my feelings
I still don't
[Chorus]
And it makes it so hard
It makes it so hard
It makes so hard to tell the truth
When you have to
[Instrumental Verse]
[Pre-Chorus]
I wish that I could say all the things I need to say
But I am still hiding in a hundred different ways
I don't know how to talk about my feelings
[Chorus]
And it makes it so hard
It makes it so hard
It makes so hard to tell the truth
When you have to
And it makes it so hard
It makes it so hard
It makes so hard to tell the truth
When you have to
[Verse]
I'm watching a movie I made about my life
In sepia tones
I'm seeing it all for what seems like the thousandth time
My childhood home
