I hate the Truth
I hate the truth, I hate the lies
Hate holding tears up in my eyes
They build me up to tear my down
Turn my smile into a frown
I live the lie or does it live me
In attempts from the truth to flee
Friends walk in walk out
Leaving me to drift about
A bubble forms, around the truth
Yet scars are there from my youth
I can't help, can't hold, can't shield it long
Soon the truth slips out and comes out
—Oh so wrong—
I hate the people, the need for support
For when the truth gets out—
The friendships cut short
I am independent, fine on my own
I hate the need to win, to ever be known
I don’t need false friendship or pity or love
I don’t need to trust, commit or care
I want to be alone
No one else here
The lies need to stop
The truth should stay hidden
An end to the questions
Death to all pain
Free all the problem ridden
