Tell

The truth is hard to come by

Secrets are everywhere

Even when you think you know for sure

It was all a plan for you to be there

Your doubts start to ambush you

For they keep you staying sharp

You don't know this yet

But they knew how it would end since the start



People often think they want the truth

They are lying

They think they want the proof

It often ends with crying

Secrets keep others happy

Maybe even you

While they accept that

You continue to dig and follow the clues



It leads a dark path

Full of lies and secrets

Things from the past

Everyone has regrets

You break down doors

Solving this mystery

Even though the case

Should have stayed in history



This could have been avoided

If only you did listen

Whenever I said the truth won't set you free

Just get you locked in prison

But you dug yourself this hole

Into your very own hell

Can you believe it all started with one word?

That word was Tell.
