Face the Facts

Words are full of meaning
Words can be screaming
The truth lies somewhere within
Syntax, though clever, is never etched
In stone and never hidden from sin

We choose to arrive, as lips may slide
To echo something relevant
An ear may concede and the other may bleed
You just don't know

Why don't we just face the facts
And leave it all alone?

Eyes can be revealing, eyes can be cheating
It takes two to make some sense of it
Mirror one another, attempt to read the glow
And see if you seeing is clear

Unfocused but wise, some x-ray type
Decipher a coded artifact
The deeper you peep you fall back asleep
I just don't know

Why don't we just face the facts
And leave it all alone?

Oh, won't you breath?
Oh, won't you see?

Why don't we just face the facts
And leave it all alone?
