I Am Scared...........

Ma
You told me only the truth be thine
You said with truth i shall forever be fine
I trusted you, i soon fell in line
With simple truths i was on cloud nine

Ma
You told me the end of the ox is beef
The end of the lie is grief
Live by the truth
Die by the truth

Ma
Now i 'll tell you

I spoke truth, only the truth
Nothing but the truth
This commodity was so scarce
I was among the rares

Ma
Listen
Time went by
You were now never near by
"They" found my truth naked, stark naked
It felt too sacred
"They" felt sorry for me
Covered it a little bit
Dressed it more, bit by bit
I was back!
My dim life suddenly well lit

Ma
You know it, it takes two to tango
And two to "truth"
One to speak, the other to listen
And i had none to listen.

Ma
Don't listen now, please
For i am "in" and "happening"
With my lies i am the jungle king
I lie with words
I lie with silence

Ma
Now people don't believe me
And i don't them
Look how i was reared
And how i am scared!
