Have you ever noticed
How often we leave out the truth?
No one tells the real story
What really happened is always
Replaced with fabricated truths
Reality is never real
That’s what I’ve learned to understand
Better to slouch the facts
Then listen while the truth falls short
The whole population is to blame
It’s as if stretching the word “Reality”
Is everyone’s new favorite game
I can be honest when I say
That I too have been dishonest
And I would be deceitful if I said
That I would never lie again
What about you?
If you told me you’d never lied
Believe me, I wouldn’t believe you
I’m only being straightforward
Not intending to be ill-mannered
I’m just stating the facts
About the perfect truths and the shattered
