BRUTAL FATALITY OF TRUTH.

John Rohner


The T.V. tells it like it is
or is it?    isn't it?
A mirror never lies
but you wish it.  don't you wish it?
The brutal fatality of truth
is too hard to handle
A false sense of happiness
is a comfortable disease
isn't it?   is it?
People tell it how they see it
can you take it?  do you hear it?
the truth is brutal
the brutal fatality of truth
is too hard to handle
A false sense of happiness
is a comfortable disease
compared to 
the pain of knowing
isn't it?
