The Truth
It's all relative, right? One thought, many thinkers One flame, many cinders One view, many windows Love in a time without sacrifice We want what we want And what's more, we deserve it We run around panicking Nervous, thinking Could this be the one? Man, they're perfect Couple years later You're chained to the circuit Breaking them down As if you're determined to waste what you've found But what's true about you? Is it the things that you claim to be true Or is it deeper? Lurking in places that you Don't dare to journey to Faced with a new Way of seeing it Are you type to accept Or the type to clench fists and reject? Songtexte Whose truth even counts? Is it the person who doubts What a person proclaims they're about? Whose version is perfect? Is there a truth that exists Outside of perception? This is the question It's true if you believe it The world is the world But it's all how you see it One man's flash of lightning ripping through the air Is another's passing glare, its hardly there Two people One thinks Two's deceitful Two thinks One's plain evil One loved Two so much it was like worship Two thought One was perfect One said to Two ‘I'm awful, trust me You're so pure that you should not touch me.' Two said ‘I don't care, I love you I can't wait to know you.' One said ‘I'm scared, I will show you The bad side that I don't like.' Two said ‘Be yourself and I will be myself We don't need no one else With their opinions The past is gone, let's move on Make present.' Two said ‘Ok, you're the best.' Well, you know the rest - It all went sour And now Two thinks One is mad for power One thinks Two tried to devour Everything that made One One But Two thinks One got Two too wrong So if there's one truth that lasts forever Can two truths ever exist together? If One loves Two but Two don't love Whose truth is true and is truth enough? It's true if you believe it The world is the world But it's all how you see it One man's flash of lightning ripping through the air Is another's passing glare, its hardly there In the back of the cab The girls look at each other, like ‘What the fuck was that?' ‘I thought it was that In Da Club one.' ‘I don't know,' says the diver, ‘I never liked rap.' ‘Well, can't you put it on Magic then Or something like that?'
