My guitar is not a thing. It is an extension of myself. It is who I am.”
- Joan Jett


I’m crying and I’m stressing

I’m on my knees confessing

Concealing curse or blessing

This is naked truth

I love him more than I can say

I’d kill to save him any day

But you don’t know him anyway

This is naked truth

Sometimes I cry, with lacking reason

I don’t see light in darkest season

And how I seem seems truth to treason

This is naked truth

I stare at the mirror and hate what I see

‘Because that’s a stranger that’s staring at me

Consumed and controlled by popularity

This is naked truth

I stand proudly though I’m weak

But truthful, it’s not strength I seek

I’ll live the day with a grin on my cheek

This is naked truth

I am untruthful, I bathe in lies

The devil sadistically bounds secret ties

But honesty’s humble while I fly

This is naked truth

You say right; I take your word

It’s actually left, and you say I’m absurd

Though the misdirection is from you I heard

This is naked truth

Too many friends and yet too little

My day is as lone as the song from the fiddle

Confusing as sweet, ‘cause my life is a riddle

This is naked truth

The rage that can burn is beyond my reach

And I listen in tears to that terrible preach

I can’t say when it sparks, ‘cause it starts with pure speech

This is naked truth

Why I do this, you must ask?

Well honesty’s a difficult task

‘cause when I lie, its joy I lack

When a word leaves your lips, you can’t take it back…

I’m crying and I’m stressing

I’m on my knees confessing

Concealing curse or blessing

This is naked truth
