Nothing But the Truth

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
It seems as clear as yesterdayWe saw it in a dreambut dream became insanityan awful gaping screamSo sad to see such emptinessSo sad to see such tearsAnd heaped up leaves of bitternessturned mouldy down the yearsNothing but the truth.Common words in useHard to find excuseHarder than the truthLike Icarus we flew too highWe flew too near the sunThey caught us in that awful glareOur hapless throats were strungBut just before the final strokeThey took us victims of the ropeAnd cast us far beyond the deepTo lie in never ending sleepIt seems as clear as yesterdayThey cast us in the deepWe lie in darkest night for goodNever ending sleepA never ending bitter gloomWhose darkness seldom clearsA God forsaken emptinessWhich fills our hearts with tears
