Truth or Dare

Truth like murder will finally come out
A voice that sat in silence, now just has to shout
Truth can truly blind you
It's brighter than the sun
A flame in the dark
Burning like powder from a gun

It may shoot out from the side of your mouth
Or come in the blink of an eye
The way a windscreen shatters, hit by a tiny fly
it’s a bitter pill to swallow
Hard to chew and digest
but like all sickly medicines
it’s prescribed for the best

Been bound and gagged for years, too shy to speak
Truth on the tip of the tongue, does it sound unique
Do you dare to tell her ?
Tell it like it is
The truth is to us, what pain is to his
