Everyone in the comments is saying they wanna see them in concert and I swear it's worth every penny. Seeing them in concert was surreal and they are incredible live
He walked on the crowd and crowd surfed, I got to touch his face and help hold his feet while he sang on top of me and my friends; I have this memory ingrained in my head haha
Lyrics Wake up, say a little prayer Out of bed to the bathroom where I take a look at myself and I stop and stare And I wonder who is this standing here And I try to find the will to carry on Wonder how much longer I can carry on Cause these days they take so long, yes they do Hey, how are you true? The light will guide you home, yes it will Hey, how are you true? Well there's one thing that you should know Yes you should You need love, you need love, you need love You need love All your days spend countin' numbers 'Til one day you'll find, day you'll find That life has passed you by And in the quiet still of silence try to hide your eyes Oh no so don't cry, oh no Hey, how are you true? The light will guide you home, yes it will Oh the years, they turn so fast Soon the present will be past and you'll look back and laugh Yes you will Well I can still remember, yes I was a young man too Alone, but not forgotten and the candle shining through Still all these words I've spoken don't mean anything at all Without love, without love, without love Without love Do, do, do, oh yeah Do, do, do, oh yeah I remember clearly we were both there on the airplane Told me all your secrets, oh I never saw it coming I thought that you were joking You were actually quite serious
Their music is great, some of their videos too, some other are creepy, weird and it doesn't matter, but I would really like a philosophical, almost spiritual video for this song, nothing extravagant. But honestly, whatever they would create for this wonderful song, the resulting video would be forgiven and even appreciated, they are so talented
"How Are You True" Wake up, say a little prayer Out of bed to the bathroom where I take a look at myself and I stop and stare And I wonder who is this standing here And I try to find the will to carry on Wonder how much longer I can carry on Cause these days they take so long, yes they do Hey, how are you true?

Mięknę. Rozpływam się. Słuchając tego kawałka znów staję się 16 letnim młodzieńcem. Dziękuję Panowie w imieniu moich uszów, serca i ducha. Pozdrawiam z Polski :-)
Sempre que ouço essa música, volto pra dentro do carro, em uma estrada tão mal iluminada que além dos faróis, a única luz que enxergava era o borrão verde anunciando o título dessa música. Fazia planos com a voz embargada de dor, a medida em que falava, percebia o quão absurdo e distante era tudo aquilo, principalmente quando se chega no ponto em que chegamos, não nos desgostavamos tão pouco tinha amor, só um frio cortante entre nós e um borrão verde no painel.
It's been 3 years since I've first hear this song and at the same time my mental health got bad and in these three years no one has ever asked me "how are you true?". I lost myself and all my happiness and no one ever cared or noticed. In these three years I met new people and still no one ever asked me how I really am. So, no one knows.
Both strange and interesting, I shall think that people in troubles end up listening this sort of music. In 2016 was the first time I listened to this song, and 'oh what a bad and rare year' I thought that it had been for me, only broken dreams. In perspective, it was not as terrible, I can even enjoy its memories with a glass of red wine, and these songs. Hope you are OK right now, but tell me, how are you true? The entire world seems to have fallen into pieces during last weeks, isn't it? Best wishes and I hope we all survive
Trouble isn't bad. I like Cold Cold Cold and Mess Around too, but some of the other songs are just meh. I've had this album for a day and so far I like Melophobia much more. Still a good album though.
Yep these days really take longer than i thought it will be. I just keep on relieving every single damn time of my life. It's like a fucking cycle i can't seem to get out of.
When I first heard Mess Around I thought this album was just some pop album and that they had changed. I would always say this was their worst album. But then I shut my goddamn mouth and actually listened to the album and I love each and every single song. This is definitely not their worst album. All of these songs have some type of meaning. Oh how I want to meet Matthew
The song is beautiful and so is the image used for this song/video... I personally love that type of photography and am glad that my camera sucks enough to do it for me all on its own. XD
I saw you the first time in 2014 and I will see you guys again this month in Portugal. My heart was broken when I found out that you're not going to play this song at the concert. To me this is the best song on the album. Please please please change the setlist and play this song!! I'll be on the front row singing it all! There's no harm in dreaming... haha
Sofia Patrício Ok the song How Are You true" Was originally on the album melophobia... That was released by Cage the Elephant in 2013... But was cutt and replaced by the song -cigarette Daydream, How I know what songs they will be singing at their concerts... Is I am still subscribed to their fan base... That gives you access to touring information... Discounts on concerts things like that! Pretty much all bands have fan base description... For about 10$ a month....
Sofia Patrício Its worth it because you get... Apps to live stream their concerts... Good hd quality... There DVDs of their concerts , And much more😀😀
This song is always so though for me hear. I can't help but cry, i have never been to a psycologist because..i don't know, i never had the oportunity because in my country mental health is kinda expensive. But i do think that i have some sourd of anxiety or overthinking problem, there is not a single day i don't ask myself if i'm happy or if i'm doing what i really want to, and everytime i hear this song it just explotes in me, specially when it says "that life have passed you by", all that bridge have always been just so strong for me, ALWAYS, and i know this song since the day it went out in the album. Now that i am independent and have the great luck of having a salary, i think i will invest more in my mental health and this song made me realize that it is necessary. I love cage the elephant, it is my favourite band and i hope i can see them on concert one day.
First time hearing this song, after looking a few cage tracks for anout s year slowly adding. Cigarette daydreams is the one that speaks to me of my childhood being abused and trafficked, and alone, and feeling like I'd never get to see the world. This song...speaks to me now, feeling so unsure, and wanting the light to be there, wanting to be loved and not alone. The whole song had me in years, but the end part...I've never told anybody my full story, not even my ex fiancee. But it made me think of her heartbreak and disbelief when I started telling her about the abuse, it took me 7 years to tell her even the mildest end, and we just finished at 9 years in. Because although she'll always love me, we just don't work any more because I'm so broken, so torn up. And the worst part is my first love, my boyfriend from the bad days, who was also a victim. We were supposed to be together but we got found after trying to run away, so we never saw each other again. I know he's alive, but I can't speak to him yet 💔 Life is so cruel, this song reminds me of the hurt but in a beautiful and validating way. Thanks Cage the Elephant for your beautiful music as always.
My gf is suicidal. When I first heard this song it made me think of her... I want her to find a will to live, it hurts me because she doesn't want to. She has bad days and good days and so do I. I cry, sing and play her this song :/ I think I'm the light that will guide her home. I didn't think she was really really serious. I hope 20 years will pass and I can see her look back and laugh. I love her and it hurts to love her, she loves me too. I know we all suffer. I ask her to make me a promise not to do anything every week just to see were she's at, it doesn't help that I screw up a lot. True had a secret he was suicidal too. "I remember clearly, we were both there on the airplane. told me all your secrets you were actually quite serious" "coming back from New York to Nashville and there was this young kid, super flustered, on the [airplane’s] jet bridge. The flight attendant asked him if he was going to Nashville to get a record deal and he was like, “No, my label is sending me to rehab.” He was kind of playing into the rock ‘n’ roll persona and I thought, “Oh no…” But I felt drawn to him; I had this feeling that I was supposed to talk to this kid. Low and behold, we get on the airplane and he’s sitting right beside me. We started talking and he just kind of tells me his story - it was pretty heavy. I was really moved. And then it turned out his name was True, which I couldn’t believe"
Hey, I was just listening to this song on repeat when I read your comment. 2 years past and wanted to ask how everything turned out? How is she? Did she manage? I have a suicidal friend myself and at this, very moment really struggling on getting help as he resists.
It's my birthday today and I thought I knew my wish already, but what I truly over and over need is to talk with my friend like we used to. I miss you Beniek, can you believe I made it to my 21st birthday? Ha!
Everyone in the comments is saying they wanna see them in concert and I swear it's worth every penny. Seeing them in concert was surreal and they are incredible live
absolutely
Facts
He walked on the crowd and crowd surfed, I got to touch his face and help hold his feet while he sang on top of me and my friends; I have this memory ingrained in my head haha
this was some emotional shit to see them live. these guys give everything in front of a crowd.
Matt is a modern day Jim Morrison. Dont miss them live. I'll see every show I can by cage.
In my opinion it's the best track in the album
negar danaie really?, is beatiful but 'cold Cold cold' is amazing.
Agreed
You've got opinions but they don't mean shit
I believe the best song is trouble
Sweetie but that’s your opinion
this is the song that cared for me when nobody else even tried to
Hey, Rafaela! how are you true?
I care about u
Sending you heaps of virtual affection
Oi. Conversa comigo
Eu sei como vc se sente.
Hi, talk to me
I know how u feel
Whatsapp 62 994589423
That is a really profound comment 🤔
Budda
Whatever you're passing through in life, this song will still makes sense
one of the most underrated band ever...
Theyve won 2 grammy's :) 2017 and 2020 :)
And they got around 8 million monthly listeners on spotify :)
Just listening to the album and trouble has 25million views and that’s not even their biggest song. They seem pretty popular
I agree 💯
@@poisonedread most of them me and my friends
This must be their most underrated song in the album.
I could literally marry this song
Lyrics
Wake up, say a little prayer
Out of bed to the bathroom where
I take a look at myself and I stop and stare
And I wonder who is this standing here
And I try to find the will to carry on
Wonder how much longer I can carry on
Cause these days they take so long, yes they do
Hey, how are you true?
The light will guide you home, yes it will
Hey, how are you true?
Well there's one thing that you should know
Yes you should
You need love, you need love, you need love
You need love
All your days spend countin' numbers
'Til one day you'll find, day you'll find
That life has passed you by
And in the quiet still of silence try to hide your eyes
Oh no so don't cry, oh no
Hey, how are you true?
The light will guide you home, yes it will
Oh the years, they turn so fast
Soon the present will be past and you'll look back and laugh
Yes you will
Well I can still remember, yes I was a young man too
Alone, but not forgotten and the candle shining through
Still all these words I've spoken don't mean anything at all
Without love, without love, without love
Without love
Do, do, do, oh yeah
Do, do, do, oh yeah
I remember clearly we were both there on the airplane
Told me all your secrets, oh I never saw it coming
I thought that you were joking
You were actually quite serious
4 years later and I still relate. Wonder if a time when I can " look back and laugh "will ever come
needs a video honestly this song is beautiful
Charisma Bros it sounds just as beautiful live
Their music is great, some of their videos too, some other are creepy, weird and it doesn't matter, but I would really like a philosophical, almost spiritual video for this song, nothing extravagant. But honestly, whatever they would create for this wonderful song, the resulting video would be forgiven and even appreciated, they are so talented
is it just me or are Cage the Elephant sad songs soul crushing?
it’s not just you. they indeed are.
I'm crying aa i listen to this. i feel so numb. it kind of helps
Cheryl Rosee yessss 😏
Hold on you're not alone
I cried when I heard this song and this song is such art
We all come from different backgrounds and places, but it hits the same for us
Obsessed with this album! Hoping to see them in concert one day.
+Mia Love they're on tour at the moment:)
i love this song i hope everyone on the planet will listen to it .... peace from Iraq ..
The video has 25k views and about 20k are mine
Well, time flies
100k are mine. i still cry every fucking time :(
Still here enjoying great music. I know it seems unreal, but we want you to play in Russia
turu-tu-tu-tu-tu-tuuu....
Same
I hope one day I can get tickets to see you guys 🙌🏼👌🏼
I saw them at red rocks amphitheater in Colorado last summer
+SpitfireNBD i saw them at a small town peoria illinois show about 7years ago... cage and silversun pickups... there were probably 60 people there
+Dustin Himmel you guys are so lucky 😭☺️👌🏼
+Dark Nat they're on tour right now you know? saw them last night haha
+Emily I'll look for the next concerts 🙌🏼 you guys have autograph ?
"How Are You True"
Wake up, say a little prayer
Out of bed to the bathroom where
I take a look at myself and I stop and stare
And I wonder who is this standing here
And I try to find the will to carry on
Wonder how much longer I can carry on
Cause these days they take so long, yes they do
Hey, how are you true?
The light will guide you home, yes it will
Hey, how are you true?
Well there's one thing that you should know
Yes you should
You need love, you need love, you need love
You need love
All your days spend counting numbers
'Til one day you'll find (day you'll find)
That life has passed you by
And in the quiet still of silence try to hide your eyes (hide your eyes)
Oh no so don't cry, oh no
Hey, how are you true?
The light will guide you home, yes it will
Oh the years, they turn so fast
Soon the present will be past and you'll look back and laugh
Yes you will
Well I can still remember, yes, I was a young man too
Alone, but not forgotten and the candle shining through
Still all these words I've spoken don't mean anything at all
Without love, without love, without love
Without love
Do, do, do, oh yeah
Do, do, do, oh yeah
I remember clearly we were both there on the airplane
Told me all your secrets, oh I never saw it coming
I thought that you were joking
You were actually quite serious
I love this song.. really resonates with me.
Nice profile pic ;]
shit this is from 3 years ago but i love tbhc 😌
Mięknę. Rozpływam się. Słuchając tego kawałka znów staję się 16 letnim młodzieńcem. Dziękuję Panowie w imieniu moich uszów, serca i ducha. Pozdrawiam z Polski :-)
My whole heart ..
never gonna get over this one.
the ‘do do do do do do’ part near the end gives me chills
think this song will always match my struggle with body dysmorphia... every word is too relatable
this song ranges from anywhere to body dismorphia to depression, but it is infact about a boy named True who was suicidal, I believe

beautiful, especially the couple ending lines

The entire world seems to have fallen into pieces during last weeks, isn't it?
Best wishes and I hope we all survive
It's Been Seven years since I've heard this One for the First Time.
There is no words to describe how much i love this song.
Favorite song on the album.
in my opinion trouble is the best
Trouble isn't bad. I like Cold Cold Cold and Mess Around too, but some of the other songs are just meh. I've had this album for a day and so far I like Melophobia much more. Still a good album though.
"You'll look back in life, yes you will"
Gives me such memories of hard times, still great
Yep these days really take longer than i thought it will be. I just keep on relieving every single damn time of my life. It's like a fucking cycle i can't seem to get out of.
this is fucking marvellous. that's all. bye.
cage the elephant you are my number one band!!!!!
i love how good the entire band is
When I first heard Mess Around I thought this album was just some pop album and that they had changed. I would always say this was their worst album.

They usually don't sing songs that was cutt from previous albums... But they will be singing it at the concert in Detroit in November.
What do you mean? This song is from the new album... btw, how do you know they will be singing that one?
Sofia Patrício Ok the song How Are You true" Was originally on the album melophobia... That was released by Cage the Elephant in 2013...

You're such a good person, along with your girlfriend. Much love to the both of you💓
Hey, I was just listening to this song on repeat when I read your comment.
