Theatrical Muse; Topic 155 Sweet vs Lies

I guess I’m more a lover than a fighter,
You hit at me - I dematerialize,
Though I’m not much for war,
Truth’s what I do fight for,
I guess you’d say my enemy is lies.

They sing the truth,
There I’ve no doubt,
Those hidden secrets are
The things their song’s about,
I tend to win. But it’s a shame,
If they forget their song
it all starts up again.


Of course, that ain’t the whole story, but when is it ever? You’d be amazed how many of my customers can get real ungrateful. They've probably made more attempts to stop me than they’ve made to cure the common cold. They’ve had just about that much success with it, too.

Hell, they say the truth hurts. Sure it does. That’s why it sometimes gets buried so deep –
but there ain’t no way to handle your life or your world without it.
