Truth
screams of millions
cannot be heard
a lone voice
can awake the world
the worst of men
can bring forth the best
do nothing
and nothing is all that's left
truth shall make you free
lies enslave liberty
justice is blind
but evil sees
listen to hear
be silent to speak
false is shallow
truth cuts deep
mock the truth
and it will laugh at you
silence the truth
and it will be heard
bury the truth
and it will dig it self free
kill the truth
and it will live
all is truth truth is all
united evil stands
divided good falls
patience is virtue
time is money
seasons come seasons go
we want to need
and need to want
we hate to love
and love to hate
real is hope
false is fear
now is over than is late
beauty is truth
truth is beauty
a single kiss can multiply into love
a spark can ignite a flame
that will set the world ablaze
truth
rains into a flood
uplifting all into her waves
drowning sorrows
pouring free souls
truth is beauty
beauty is truth
