The world hides those secrets we deny
We wake up to nothing but those lies
Forgive me for I will speak the truth
Listen closely and we can hear the world cry
This path that we're walking, it's not making a change
The darkness grows stronger and we feel we can't escape
To protect our families, lies become our truth
Cover your eyes, ignore what's happening
Shine some light, uncover what's really the truth
The pain will be gruesome, but wounds will start to heal
Find what's right and be who you're meant to be
Dealing won't be easy, believe me
But also know, it's worth it in the end
All those lies, they can sound so close to truth
But they're not, and they will never be
All that pain, is the reason for over half of our good-byes
Uncover your eyes why can't you see
The pain, it's killing all of us
You're hearing but why won't you listen to me
Take some time and walk as slow as you can
Not only look, but finally see everyone
See the pain in every woman and man
See the pain in everyone under the sun
To protect our families, lies become our truth
The world hides those secrets we deny
Forgive me for I will speak the truth
