Fear the truth sometimes
Fear the truth sometimes, fear the truth.
Something so simple can shatter all you knew
It can complicate all things, giving new logic
and strange meanings to old feelings.
The truth is like a song to be sang
only at the depths of the sea,
To be heard of by no one, only the water and fishes
fear the truth sometimes, fear the truth
Something so small, can forever ruin you.
