Truth & Lies

Truth is it really the best?

Lies are they really the worst?

Truth and lies are like the sun and the moon

People know which one is the best

But they still seem to diminish the other one

Take a look at their definitions:

Lie: An intentionally false statement.

Truth: That which is in accordance with fact or reality

Aren’t they too bias, too different?

People understand it as if it’s like:

Truth isA-A-A-A-A-A

As in good

And Lies are: Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh

As in bad

Lies,they send different signals

They send different messages

They send different ideas

They create whole different stories

Or at least that’s everybody’s understanding

Truth it gives you the cold hard truth

It might hurt it, might be good

Truth gives you no option at all

You know it all with the truth

Are truths the best or the worst?

People think truths are like wonderland where the sky is blue,

It smells coco all around, you feel greatness

And see nothing but beautifulness

Truths talk without protecting

Truths are straightforward

Lies they give you room

Room to avoid or work with

People misunderstand lies

We believe lies are all bad

We believe the truth is always good

But then are we all bad?

We have all lied plenty of times

No matter how much someone can mean to you

Everybody will lie

You have to understand there was a reason

Good or bad it doesn’t matter

Forgive, love and don’t look back

You’ve lied yourself for your own reasons

Trust, it is key, its crucial

Trust gives you power to overcome barriers

Like lies and mistruths

If you have trust, you will overcome!

Truths are lies

Lies are truths

Lies they might make you want to die

Truths they might make you feel youth

That’s the power behind them

You must understand that some thingsyou might believe to be true

Others might not

It’s the things like this

That makes you keep fighting

Fighting to forgive those horrible lies or truths

So when trying to forget a lie told, look back

Understand that lies are not hell on earth

There not what you might think they are

Understand that both lies and truths can hurt significantly

People think I’m a lazy pretentious lair but I’m actually protecting them!
