The Truth Lies 

You see him day and night 
You know him right?
His smile so bright 
His teeth are white 
The grass is greener on his site

The truth lies 
To see Him
You have to see past the shell 
And see inside 

The truth blinds
The only guide
If you pry his heart open-wide 

The truth hides 
You have to look behind 
And journey inside 
Only then will you find
Where the truth and he coincide
The essence of his being comes to reside

For You see his might 
But can you see his plight 
You see him with spite 
But can you see him cry 
You see him fight 
But do you see his fright 

Bear this in mind 
Humankind 
Through sight  
Can’t be defined
To see man you have to be blind 
Approach him through what can’t be seen 
But what lives inside 

The truth is 
The truth lies 
But if you care 
Journey and you will find 
You will arrive 
At a truly magnificent sight
