Truth, You Are No Friend of Mine

Truth, you are no friend of mine
You are not honest, nor are you kind
You burn me down in your lies
Truth, you are no friend of mine

I have burned at your scoffing words
Down in flames you engulfed my world
Truth, you might as well have never let me
Even try to hold myself above your lies

Truth, you are no friend of mine
You are not honest, nor are you kind
You burn me down in your lies
Truth, you are no friend of mine

I have been belittled and beguiled by you
Here, I had thought you would be real, Truth
But no, you let me die in my burning anger
I cannot see through all your lies

Truth, you are no friend of mine
You are never honest nor ever kind
You keep burning me in all your lies
You were never, ever a friend of mine

So let me down easy, slow, let me down
Stop this suffering now
Truth, won't you let me go now?
You just want to watch me burn down

Truth, you are no friend of mine
You are not honest, you are not kind
You tricked me well with your disguise
But Truth, you were never a friend of mine
Truth, you are no friend of mine
