When can we see the truth Why do people lie Say things that aren't real Why do people cry Hiding the things they feel Why do people leave Do they have something to gain Why do people die Leaving others in pain Where can we see the truth Not in the words people speak Not in the smiles people seek Not in the suitcases we carry Not inthe things left behind to burry How can we see the truth Not by opening our ears to hear Not by hiding all our tears Not by running in a fight Not by fading away with the light Why are people so mean Why can they not just see Are they scared of what they do not see Is opening their heart just to hard for them Is their opinois that slim The damage may already be done The scars may be to hard to mend How do you tell the truth from a lie Or is the truth just one big lie

Plain truth
When can we see the truth Why do people lie Say things that aren't real Why do people cry Hiding the things they feel Why do people leave Do they have something to gain Why do people die Leaving others in pain Where can we see the truth Not in the words people speak Not in the smiles people seek Not in the suitcases we carry Not inthe things left behind to burry How can we see the truth Not by opening our ears to hear Not by hiding all our tears Not by running in a fight Not by fading away with the light Why are people so mean Why can they not just see Are they scared of what they do not see Is opening their heart just to hard for them Is their opinois that slim The damage may already be done The scars may be to hard to mend How do you tell the truth from a lie Or is the truth just one big lie
