Lyrics
They say, "she'll promise you the world
And look deep into your eyes
But she'll use you up
And then she'll take it back and say that you lied"
They say, "she's got a reputation
She's not what she seems"
And you'd say, "please don't believe
What they say about me"
But it's all true, it's all true
What they say about you
It's all true, it's all true, yeah
It's all true, it's all true
What they say about you
And I'm through standing up for you
How many times
Can you repeat the same mistakes
And never even see
That you made them in the first place
You're not the girl
That you seem to want to be
And you say, "please don't believe
What they say about me"
But it's all true, it's all true
What they say about you
It's all true, it's all true, yeah
It's all true, it's all true
What they say about you
And I'm through trying not to see it
I was blind but now I see
I was lost but now I'm found
And I used to wait around
Every time that you shut down
But I am not your magic mirror
Saying what you wanna hear
Maybe you could see clearer
If you opened up your ears
And then you'd realize
That it's all true, it's all true
What they say about you
It's all true, it's all true, yeah
It's all true, it's all true
What they say about you
And I'm through trying not to see it
Cause I've seen it
And seeing is believing
