If it's True

作词 : Anaïs Mitchell
 作曲 : Anaïs Mitchell
 
 If it's true what they say
 If there's nothing to be done
 If it's true then it's too late
 And the girl I love is gone
 If it's true what they say
 Is this how the world is?
 To be beaten and betrayed and then be told that nothing changes?
 It'll always be like this?
 If it's true what they say
 I'll be on my way

 
 (spoken)
 And the boy turned to go
 'Cause he thought no one could hear
 But everybody knows that walls have ears
 (sung)
 And the workers heard him

 
 If it's true what they say

 
 With their hammers swinging

 
 What's the purpose of a man?

 
 And they quit their workin'

 
 Just to turn his eyes away?

 
 When they heard him singing

 
 Just to throw up both his hands?

 
 No hammer swinging

 
 What's the use of his backbone

 
 No pickaxe ringin'

 
 If he never stands upright?

 
 And they stood and listened

 
 If he turns his back on everyone?

 
 To the poor boy singing

 
 That he could've stood beside

 
 If it's true what they say
 I'll be on my way
 But who are they to say what the truth is anyway?
 'Cause the ones who tell the lies are the solemnest to swear
 And the ones who load the dice
 Always say the toss is fair
 And the ones who deal the cards

 
 Deal the cards

 
 Are the ones who take the tricks
 With their hands over their hearts
 While we play the game they fix
 And the ones who speak the words

 
 Speak the words

 
 Always say it is the last
 And no answer will be heard
 To the question no one asks
 So I'm askin' if it's true
 I'm askin' me and you
 And you
 And you
 I believe our answer matters more than anything they say

 
 We stand and listen

 
 I believe if there is still a will
 Then there is still a way

 
 We're standing with him

 
 I believe there is a way
 I believe in us together
 More than anyone alone

 
 We're standing near him

 
 I believe that with each other, we are stronger than we know

 
 We hear him

 
 I believe we're stronger than they know
 I believe that we are many
 I believe that they are few

 
 We're standing

 
 And it isn't for the few
 To tell the many what is true

 
 We understand him

 
 So I ask you:
 If it's true what they say

 
 We're standing

 
 I'll be on my way

 
 We're standing

 
 Tell me what to do

 
 We're standing

 
 Is it true?
 Is it true what they say?
