We are told to only tell the truth.
Yet some do not follow.

Some people are told to tell lies to protect.
Yet some do not follow.

When people tell the truth,
People can get hurt.

When people tell a lie,
People get hurt.

When you tell the truth,
People think it's a lie.

When you tell a lie,
People think it’s the truth.

When someone see’s past a lie,
They get the devastating truth.

When people get the truth,
They get the devastating truth.

No matter if you tell the truth or a lie...
Someone always gets hurt.
