The Truth Changes If We Both Lie
My Ticket Home Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I won't leave you alone just come back home
I've been trying for far too long to make this happen
I've been making noises to catch your attention, girl
Things are changing and I know that I'll be
Living without you, breathing without you
Look at what you do, why won't you give us some time
I've heard your complains but I don't need you to waste my time
I won't leave you alone just come back home
I've been playing a game so long
I can make your teases moving
Trying harder to make me forget you girl
Please attend to know that I'll be
Living without you, breathing without you
It's like I'm losing my mind when I'm trying to be here without you
Look at what you do, why won't you give us some time
I've heard your complains but I, don't need you to waste my time
I won't leave you alone just come back home
And I'll be there in case you try to leave town and escape tonight
I won't leave you alone just come back home
I'm laying without you and I'm lonely alone
I'm living without you and I'm lonely alone
I'm leaving without you and I'm lonely alone
I'm lonely alone
I'm lonely alone
I've heard your complains but I don't need you to waste my time
I won't leave you alone just come back home
And I'll be there in case you try to leave town and escape tonight
I won't leave you alone just come back home
The song "The Truth Changes If We Both Lie" by My Ticket Home is clearly about the struggles of a failing relationship. The opening line, "You've showed me disgrace but I don't need you to waste my time," shows a sense of displeasure with the way one's significant other has acted in the past. However, despite this, there is a strong sense of wanting to keep the relationship alive, as evidenced by "I won't leave you alone just come back home." This line in particular suggests that despite the flaws in the relationship, the singer is willing to forgive and forget if the other person returns.
The following lines provide more insight into the struggles the relationship has faced. With "I've been trying for far too long to make this happen," the singer is expressing a sense of exhaustion with trying to fix things. The sentiment that "Things are changing and I know that I'll be / Living without you, breathing without you" suggests that the singer knows the relationship might end, but they are not sure how they will carry on without the other person.
The repeated line "I'm lonely alone" at the end of the song provides a feeling of sadness and isolation, as if the singer has finally come to terms with the fact that the relationship is truly over. However, despite this, they still cling to the hope that the other person will return and the relationship can be repaired, stating "I won't leave you alone just come back home."
