What Is Truth

That haunting thought Keeps me tossed in the dead of night Can't understand I see no fault But there you stand Silent before violent hands It's life or death we choose What is truth Desolate land Heavy clouds meet the sinking sand With barbs we forged Holding captive still the tethered lamb Calling me out to the depths within It's life or death we choose What is truth Hands tied, asleep Can't wake up from this dream I tried, I try, & I tried, but my mouth shuts when I scream Can't shake this off I'm indignant without proof So I ask myself What is truth So I ask myself What is truth So tell me What more can I do What more can I do To try and save you Is there anything else I can do To get to You Your dealer of death comes at noon Your only way out is through What Is truth So I ask of You What is truth So tell me, what more We watch while the hourglass drains Were the efforts all in vein The rage beneath the sand As time buries me deep within You're the tree in the hurricane wind Roots clutched while the waves break again I see no hope in sight Yet You keep Your head held high Say something to stay alive Say something Would You please say something In the silence I heard Your voice In the stillness You move In the distance You're close You're ever-present when needed most Holder of my broken heart
