Hidden Truth

Is there a place where I can go, 
to find some truth, 
I'd like to know.
Truth cannot be found in size, 
small swells big, 
big shrinks to hide.
Truth cannot be found in color, 
without light ones like the other.
Truth cannot be found in men, 
we've all lied once, 
we'll lie again.
Truth is more a hopeful wish, 
a dreamful thought that flows from lips.
A pleasantry that few have known, 
that few have seen or even shown.
Truth is just a word that hides, 
within a world thats full of lies.
