[Intro]
Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm

[Verse 1]
The second you offered me a ride
I couldn't get the thought out of my mind
Promises open when they are pried
Up with the vapor of a week of sighs
The cards say "A change is coming near
An as a nestling on a bough
The fool is the martyr of the now"

[Chorus]
Izzit true what they tell me? (Oh-oh)
Izzit true what they tell me? (Oh-oh)
Izzit true what they tell me? (Oh-oh)
Izzit true what they tell me? (Oh-oh)

[Verse 2]
Inviting you in a second time
How your possessions were lighter than mine
And how we talked all through the night
As if I have known you all of my life
Touching your finger to my eye
How you prove the card was right
That said you'd be all I have in sight
[Chorus]
Izzit true what they tell me? (Oh-oh)
Izzit true what they tell me? (Oh-oh)
Izzit true what they tell me? (Oh-oh)
Izzit true what they tell me? (Oh-oh)

[Bridge 1]
Ay, is the lesson cast asunder?
And you can't even know, what kind of luck that you're leaving
Ay, rang a rented bell of sorrow
Oh in the lake and the forest, go to hell I adore you
Ay, ever righteous call of thunder
Oh I don't know what to call it, but I know that you feel it
Ay, ever wretched call of wonder (No regrets)
Now I receive you on the day
I hide and seek you on the hour (In time)
In odysseys of no and yes (Even now, as a witness, even now)

[Verse 3]
(Ah-ah-ah) Am I the finch, am I the cage?
(Ah-ah-ah) Oh, either way, I couldn't care
(Ah-ah-ah) If you could see inside my head
(Ah-ah-ah) Where every clock is stopped by you
(Ah-ah-ah) Like in some silent threat
(Ah-ah-ah) Like I'm the one who should be careful
(Ah-ah-ah) Though it never could've happened without you
(Ah-ah-ah) No, it never could've happened without you
You-you-you-you-you-you-you-you-you-you-you-you-you-you-you-you-you
[Bridge 2]
Budding interrupted
In glory of their matching
Winding up the rope (Ah-ah-ah)
Together and alone (Ah-ah-ah)
Tell me a story, leaving out the ending
I don't want to know (Ah-ah-ah)
Whose heart was made to roam

[Chorus]
Izzit true what they tell me? (Oh-oh)
Izzit true what they tell me? (Oh-oh)
Izzit true what they tell me? (Oh-oh)
Izzit true what they tell me?
