-truth-

My words are my own
Don't take them from me
Listen with your heart
Perhaps u will see...

When I say three words
Don't claim its a lie
If you hear the truth
Believe in it, just try...

Im hurting from this
My heart ripped in two
Theres no room for tears
My soul torn anew...

Every line of filth
I hear from your tone
Breaks me down inside
Crushed, and alone...
