The Truth Is That...

If all truth was heartbreaking and breathtaking,
Would you still want it?
If all truth lead to death and despair,
Would you still tell it?
If lies didn't exist,
Would you still love me?

Lies keep the world fair,
Truth is, truth destroys,
I've seen friendships ripped apart,
I've seen half a family,
I've seen a lot, really.

The truth is, that no matter who you tell,
It always comes out,
Maybe it is bad,
Maybe it will sting,
Maybe you will pay,
Maybe, maybe, maybe,
Maybe is always an option,
Maybe it'll get better one day,
All this hurt,
Maybe.
