The Consequence of Truth
Sometimes the Truth Doesn't Set You Free, it Just Hurts
Not all the lies are white.
The strong aren't always right.
The consequence of truth
is like a rotten tooth -
sometimes painful to bear
never easy to share.
When it finally breaks
that's often all it takes,
when the truth is hollow
bitter pills to swallow
that cure no known disease
but bring us to our knees.
