The Truth In the Dark

The truth is whispered in the dark But is lost in the wind People look ahead in life Only to catch glimpses of the end People saying ignorance is bliss But knowledge is power They say memories are like minutes Cause your lifetimes like an hour They say lies to get leverage And accusations to point blame Honesty to gain respect And truth to bring shame They say live your life Like it just might end tomorrow No time to feel regret No time to feel sorrow The truth may be lost in the dark But very few can see The real answers in life Lie behind you and me
