Lyrics

[Intro]

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

[Verse 1]

Truth is harder than a lie

The dark seems safer than the light

And everyone has a heart that loves to hide

[Verse 2]

I'm a mess and so are you

We've built walls nobody can get through

Yeah, it may be hard but the best thing we could ever do

Ever do

[Chorus]

Bring your brokenness, and I'll bring mine

'Cause love can heal what hurt divides

And mercy's waiting on the other side

[PostChorus]

If we're honest (Ooh-ooh)

If we're honest (Ooh-ooh)

[Verse 3]

Don't pretend to be something that you're not

Living life, afraid of getting caught

There is freedom found when we lay our secrets down at the cross

At the cross

[Chorus]

So bring your brokenness, and I'll bring mine

'Cause love can heal what hurt divides

And mercy's waiting on the other side

[PostChorus]

If we're honest (Ooh-ooh)

If we're honest (Ooh-ooh)

[Bridge]

It would change our lives

It would set us free

It's what we need to be

[Instrumental]

So bring your brokenness, and I'll bring mine

'Cause love can heal what hurt divides

And mercy's waiting on the other side

Mhm

[PostChorus]

If we're honest (Ooh-ooh)

If we're honest (Ooh-ooh)

If we're honest (Ooh-ooh)
