Truth is Music
Seek the truth in music’s arms
honesty that will evolve
adapting to the greatest need
to dispel the strident lies
that sum of chords expressed throughout
speaks veracity to the heart
even while the gross deceit
is expressed without concern
for the lost among the crowd
desiring comfort in their resolve
to escape from chains of angst
attached in realms of silent rage
against the palette of the world
wishing for sincerity
starved for blessings in the void
now fulfilled by music’s charm.
