The Truth Hurts


As you grow up, you’ll understand half the things that’s “giving” to you will be taken

away, but the truth hurts. Truth?  what is that word that they use. Truth what is that

word people say you have to do. Is telling the truth really lying ? Can the truth really 

set you “free” ? ... Truth? What is that word that they use.
