Which is more painful? The lie told or the truth hidden? The reality unknown of Or the reality believed in? To say you've forgotten But secretly reminisce what has past Or when there is no presence of love But still trying to make us last To bid a forced farewell When desperately wanting to stay Or to remain together Where everything's black, white and gray The hurtful unmeant words That carelessly slips Or what needed to be heard That's kept behind those lips Let me ask you again When asked about you and I Which is more painful? The unheard truth or the stated lie? Which is more painful to be heard And more painful to be spoken? Forced to say you don't when you still do Or forced to say you do when you no longer can? What answer shall I say? What answer shall I hear? If asked about our love, Which pain should I fear?

Which is more painful? The lie told or the truth hidden? The reality unknown of Or the reality believed in? To say you've forgotten But secretly reminisce what has past Or when there is no presence of love But still trying to make us last To bid a forced farewell When desperately wanting to stay Or to remain together Where everything's black, white and gray The hurtful unmeant words That carelessly slips Or what needed to be heard That's kept behind those lips Let me ask you again When asked about you and I Which is more painful? The unheard truth or the stated lie? Which is more painful to be heard And more painful to be spoken? Forced to say you don't when you still do Or forced to say you do when you no longer can? What answer shall I say? What answer shall I hear? If asked about our love, Which pain should I fear?
