Chris Gaither

Truth Bomb

It was easier to live the lie I was told
Than to face the truth we all knew
But eventually
The truth blew up in my face
And now it’s written all over my face–
You were powerless;
Now, through a greater power, I am not
 
So, with these words
We stand face to face
And the truth is out
Of our control
