LYRICS:
[Verse 1]
Lie number one: You're supposed to have it all together
And when they ask how you're doing, just smile and tell them "Never better"
Lie number two: Everybody's life is perfect except yours
So keep your messes and your wounds and your secrets safe with you behind closed doors
[Pre-Chorus]
But truth be told, the truth is rarely told (No)
[Chorus]
I say, "I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine, oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine"
But I'm not, I'm broken
And when it's out of control, I say "It's under control"
But it's not and You know it
I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
When being honest is the only way to fix it
There's no failure, no fall
There's no sin You don't already know
So let the truth be told
[Verse 2]
There's a sign on the door, says, "Come as you are," but I doubt it
'Cause if we lived like that was true, every Sunday morning pew would be crowded
But didn't You say church should look more like a hospital?
A safe place for the sick, the sinner and the scarred, and the prodigals
Like me
[Pre-Chorus]
Well truth be told, the truth is rarely told
Oh, am I the only one who says
[Chorus]
"I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine, oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine"
But I'm not, I'm broken (Broken)
And when it's out of control, I say "It's under control"
But it's not and You know it (Know it)
I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
When being honest is the only way to fix it
There's no failure, no fall
There's no sin You don't already know
So let the truth be told
[Bridge]
Can I really stand here unashamed
Knowing that Your love for me won't change?
Oh God, if that's really true
Then let the truth be told
[Chorus]
I say, "I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine, oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine"
But I'm not, I'm broken (Broken)
And when it's out of control I say it's under control
But it's not and You know it (Know it)
I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
When being honest is the only way to fix it
There's no failure, no fall
There's no sin You don't already know
Yeah, I know
There's no failure, no fall
There's no sin You don't already know
So let the truth be told

You’ve made it to the bottom of the description! Give me a fist bump 👊 in the comments because you’re cool!! 😎
Beautiful song, and is so true , loved this song, after i went through anxiety and panic attacks, but this Psalm came to my mind Ps.32:3-5 and I conquered it thru Jesus love and forgiveness.Our live are perfect when we became son and daughter of the king of kings, our good fahter Is.9:6
I was privileged to see this man in concert in a small church setting this past year. Such a wonderful gentleman and his family is so nice. A nice witness for the Lord, and a blessed time with some great singing.
I was headed into another mental breakdown when I went to the pastor of the Baptist church in the small town I lived in. I started attending church on a regular basis where I had only gone to church a few times in the past. I went to the elderly women's Sunday school and Bible study even though I was a lot younger. They showered me with love and I always said it was like a hospital for me. I healed and didn't have to go back to the mental hospital which I had been several times. It is too bad everyone can't receive the healing I received. Rest in peace my beloved friends. ❤
Praying for you.
Every time I listen this in k love my heart goes to Jesus am so thankful that you made this song 😊 ❤
I pray that you test negative for covid and positive for Faith in jesus amen to that

Lol that’s so cute 🥰 yes amen to that 🙏🏽💕💜
Amen
Yes!!!!! Amen to that! I love this! God Bless you!
It has a message to me. Now it might not to you, but maybe you might not be struggling in the areas mentioned in this song. Or worse, you could actually be struggling in these areas but "block" yourself (or something is blocking you) from seeing it. In which case you may need to ask God what it is and to help you see what areas of your life He wants you to work on. And as far as the areas mentioned, it's not explicitly mentioned, but it could be anything from addiction to extreme anger, mental health issues, depression, and even physical issues. As far as me, it's addiction. I would tell myself and others as I was going through it that I was fine, knowing full well deep inside I wasn't. I had things going for me - graduated 3rd in my class in high school, working on getting a degree and hopefully a job in aerospace engineering, had a job to finally pay my way through college, great relationship with family, a lot of good was sure to come. Sadly, I hit rock bottom and ended up in prison with a felony, lost my job, lost my career opportunity (you need to pass clearances for aerospace engineering as you often work with or under military or government contracts. You can't do that with a felony on your record. A misdemeanor, yes.) I lost relationships with my family, etc. Everything I worked hard for was pretty much shot. That's when I woke up and realized I can't do it anymore. It was hard to let the TRUTH BE TOLD about my addiction, and I avoided doing it for far too long. But I had to face up to it. I've been sober for 2 years, 7 months, 17 days now. It's not easy by any means. I still get desires. I'll always have them, but I don't give in to it anymore. And if I've stayed sober for 2 years 7 months, I know I can stay sober for 27 years. Occasionally I need a reminder of that when the urges get strong. This song reminds me it's okay to tell God and someone I trust that I am having a hard time and ask for help to get me through it.
❤ how is your life now?
@@PoojaGurung-2024 So far, good considering the circumstances. One thing I didn't mention in the comment is that I am on parole (although it's usually a given when you exit prison). As of the 7th of this month, I have only 8 months left. That's out of a 4-year parole. Most don't make it through without violating their conditions. I haven't violated them once. I've got a job working as a busser/dishwasher for a restaurant now and have held that for 10 months now. Still am sober. I still can get urges from time to time, but they are slowly but surely tapering off. Been working on the things in my treatment, and one of the best parts is my therapist is a Christian therapist, so he's helping me on that level too.
Thank you so much for sharing this❤️ It surely takes a lot of courage. Your testimony moved me to be true about my struggles in life. God bless you for your heart 💓💓💓 I'm so glad he found you! Praying that all will be well w u! Remain faithful on God for he is our shepherd and through him, we have everything we need 🙏
❤❤❤ My daughter's favorite song
Hallelujah 🙌🙌
An amazing song just to listen to
These times cry out to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Blessed praise and gospel truths lift us up to a closer walk with GOD!
Keep ready! JESUS CHRIST IS COMING! HE PROMISED. HE KEEPS HIS WORD. Maranatha! 1 Cor.16:22; John 14:1-3, 6; Titus 2:11-15.
To know and believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior! John 3:16. That is our greatest blessing in life.
THE ANGELS GIVE GLORY TO GOD IN HEAVEN! HERE WE HEAR AND SEE EARTH "ANGELS" DOING IT TOO! RIGHT HERE! JUST LIKE YOU! WE LOVE YOU, LORD! YOU GAVE ALL FOR US. YOUR SUFFERING WAS IMMENSE! WE GIVE YOU ALL THE GLORY! YOU ARE OUR LIFE SAVIOR.
Mark 16:15
Gospel! The good news about Jesus Christ and salvation from judgment on our sins. Jesus dined with His disciples the night before He went to the cross. Mark 14:22-25. Jesus and His disciples were eating a Passover meal together at the Last Supper. After partaking of bread and wine (His body and His blood), the Bible mentions the hymn Jesus sang with His disciples. “And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.” Mark 14:26. What were they singing on such an occasion? PRAISE! Psalms 113-118.
THE GOOD NEWS
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father, but by me." John 14:6
Jesus Christ loves us! We believe this! John 3:16-17. We believe Him and who He is! He is our Savior! GOD THE SON! ONLY HE SAVES.
Ephesians 2:8 "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 not of works, lest any man should boast."
JESUS GAVE HIS LIFE FOR US AND LIVES AGAIN!
1 Corinthians 15: 3 "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:"
Blood coming from his body, NAKED, hanging on that cross like Roman torture weapon! What a Lord God and Savior! He had to. HE is God the Son. Only His sinless blood could pay for all our sins. 1 John 2:1-2.
He died on our behalf! We believe in Him and who He is, trusting the shedding of His blood as payment for ALL our sins, and His burial and resurrection from the dead the third day for our eternal life! John 20:24-31. HE LIVES EVERMORE!
We can live forever through Him. God forgives our sins through Him otherwise our sins will prevent us from living in Glory with Him and our family in the faith the Bible describes. We study to show ourselves approved in wisdom and further truths about Him! We are in a family! God's family. CHRIST'S BRIDE! We got to know Jesus Christ better and better!
Romans 5:8 "But God demonstrates his love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more than, now justified by his blood, we will be saved from wrath through him."
HE LIVES! JESUS LIVES!
Beautiful song,Needed this today
I love you God so much thank you
Love love love it!
This is the most ♥ touching music and therefore so emotional 😢😢
My sons favorite song
I really love this song
Amen👏
Thanks for the video with music, it is really refreshing me!
Amazing
I agree
Hey, so
A li'l testimony, if you will?
THIS IS A REALLY REALLY LONG COMMENT IN POETRY-STYLE KINDA; READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Lately,
My life is great but also not-great. Why?
If I'm a "Christian",
What's this thing going on with me,
Where I live more for Pleasure,
Than I do God's Higher Calling?
I stay up late at night,
Cuz I'm a Night Owl.
I eat really unhealthy food,
Chocolate and McDonald's being the biggest part of this diet.
Why?
Because they taste WAY BETTER than healthier options.
I cuss like a sailor,
And it's not "Fake" cussing either;
It's F, S, A-H, you name it.
But I REFUSE the C U N -Not Gonna Finish That One,
But still.
The first 3 are bad enough,
And I know it.
But I still do it.
My weight?
Oh yea,
I got weight.
Fleshy weight,
Not "sin" weight,
Tho I'm sure I've got that, too.
Impulse-control,
Aka, Self-Control?
Nope.
That went out the window a long time ago,
I'm pretty sure.
How I use my time?
I pretty sure I don't budget it very well...
Hence my constantly needing more time at night.
It's like getting an extension,
Again,
And Again,
And Again.
When will I stop all this?
When will I stop thinking I better get all these messes together
Before I actually come to Jesus?
I already believe in him;
Why do I not run straight to Him and ask for help?
I avoid and try to get these messes a bit more orderly first, instead.
When my actions show me such glaring evidence to the contrary,
Do I really believe in Jesus?
As Savior of the world?
Or the Broken,
Beaten,
And the Damned,
To reference My Chemical Romance a li'l bit,
Whose music I honestly love,
Even if that's so "bad" for a Christian?
After 2 Mandisa Song's,
"Waiting for Tomorrow"
And "Temporary Fills",
While I play Animal Crossing: New Horizons,
Making sure these are Lyric Videos,
I then clicked on Matthew West's,
"Hello, My Name Is".
Cool songs,
But not quite hitting where I'm at like a nail on the head.
I was just getting ready to search up "Songs about sin",
To find something more relevant,
And hopefully comforting
About my situation (because I maintain the belief that it's only temporary),
But decided to click on this, basically.
I think I found what I needed. ❤
Because this is why I DON'T go to church now;
Wooden pews,
A service I may or may not get much out of,
As in,
I connect with it hardcore,
But a great risk of the prayers being so long, they're painful and I dread them,
Cuz I cannot connect with those, either?
I wish "Church" today,
In today's modern world,
Could look more like my condo;
A home-y environment
Where there's a kitchen to make food for those who are hungry and thirsty for nourishment;
A bedroom with beds n such, even clothes closet,
For the need of sleep and not being naked or left in ratty threads;
A couch to indeed chat and study the Bible on,
But we use roundtable discussions to help us all understand
The true meaning of God's Love,
And why Jesus came into this world
To save us from SIN.
Where most importantly,
In a humble condo unit like this,
It feels like JESUS HIMSELF is here,
Fellowshipping with us,
The Holy Spirit being the Helper
In all that we need here,
And it's REAL.
What even IS sin?
I still don't know for certain;
It baffles my brains alot,
Even when I try to understand what it is,
Truly is,
In my own life.
I only have suspicions;
Not like, crystal-clear answers.
And at church,
At least for the short time I attended,
It was hard to "break my way in"
To the fellowship there.
Everyone there all had their own groups.
I think I was the only 20-something there, actually.
Without kids or college stuff,
Just me,
Not quite fitting into any of the categories
These groups might offer.
Twice I was told in a service it was such a good thing I was there.
For you guys, maybe yea.
For me?
Nope.
Not after TRYING to get in the fellowship somehow and be social,
But I found myself standing in the room awkwardly,
More than once.
You guys looked busy;
I TRY not to rudely intrude,
When my Bi-Polar's nicely under control.
So...
This song gave me what I'm needing right now,
After all that.
Does God / Jesus still love me,
When my life is so "sinful" right now,
With unhealthy habits
And a stomach that wants
All the wrong things?
Was I lying when I said I wanted him like,
Maybe 2 or 3 years ago?
Am I one of those "Christians"
Who SAY I want Jesus,
But what I REALLY want is,
Magic Card to Avoid Hell,
But Freedom to live my life as I please,
Neverminding what HE wants?
Cuz "Obedience" and all that
Sounds hard, painful, and sucky?
I'm supposed to be doing better than this,
As a Christian.
I know I am...
...If I'm actually serious about being saved,
And what that meant for all humanity,
And even just me,
On a personal level.
But I'm not.
I'm doing poorly,
And I know it.
Still not taking very many "right" or "healthy" actions,
From what I see,
So it feels like the only thing I have to offer Jesus right now
Is Honesty.
If I'm not living so purely and righteously right now,
Going so far as to be ungodly in a lot of what I do,
The only thing I'm able to offer right now
Is Honesty.
Somehow that one is "easy" for me to offer,
Without even trying to make myself look good in the process,
Because everything else is feeling VERY HARD for me right now.
This comment is appallingly long,
For this is how my brain can best explain itself
In a clear and concise manner;
Paragraphs leave me lost in alot of cases.
So,
Matthew West?
Thank you for this song.
I needed it right now.
It addresses my situation beautifully,
Because I am "sick" right now,
And I need a safe sanctuary I can heal in,
With Jesus being a Kind and Loving Doctor,
Who won't deny the reality of my self-destruction,
But heal me in all areas,
So that the final result may be,
I want Better,
But more importantly,
I want Him,
And His Way of Life for me,
Genuinely.
PS: Why do I think I am an "exception" to every single rule there is?
(Listening to this song again and editing the comment a li'l bit;
"Everyone's life is perfect, except yours."
Am I really such an 'odd one out'?
So different rules will apply to me,
That don't apply to everyone else?
Apply because I'm SCREWED, not "Better than"?)
I'd like to finally rest in the FACT
That I'm NOT an "exception"
In a bad sort of way,
And that the same good rules that apply to everyone else
Will apply to me, too, just the same, no differently, if uniquely. ❤
Says "truth be told" but then says absolutely NOTHING. No message, nothing at all. No point having a great singing voice if you have nothing to say. Try harder.

I think it's a commentary on people being fake in the church, trying to put up a false image of having no problems. And with this spirit, those people will treat others like there is something wrong with them if they open up about their problems, or ask for help. So, it kind of perpetuates a cycle of people being afraid of being honest, just to keep up appearances. But we will never get to the truth, if we aren't honest about our problems, and we do damage to others when we don't let others be honest with theirs.
There is a lot of judgement in the church, people being hypocrites, and condemning people so that they don't even want to come to church anymore. Jesus called out the hypocrites, and we are supposed to learn to be more honest and caring.

Just say you did not understand anything. Don’t try to make it everyone’s business
