Truth

I'm gonna find it, I'm gonna find the truth Cause it ain't here, it's nowhere near I gotta find it, I gotta find the truth If I lose my mind, well I don't care The truth is in plain contradiction The truth is not in this situation The truth is it's my only salvation The truth is not here I tried to find it looking in the works of man And if it's there it's sure not clear I thought I saw it somwhere [sic] in a starry sky And if it's there, I'm stuck down here The truth is like chasing a phantom The truth is so seemingly random The truth is not easily handled The truth is not here The truth is stranger than fiction I gotta find the truth If I have to stand all day in the bright sunshine I gotta find it, I'm gonna find the truth If I have to dance all night, leave my body behind Because the truth is never gonna look for me I will never get to see what I have not earned And the truth is, if that day should never come That doesn't mean I was wrong To try to capture that bird Sweet bird of truth, come to me
