The Litany Of Truth

I try to block the truth from reaching me 
And all the universe is teaching me
Has to turn into a baseball bat
Instead of the original welcome mat
He offered me love in the extreme
And though it was a part of the dream
It had something real to it too
And I realised I was in love with you
But I turned away
Because what is it that people say
We are too different to make it work
And you are bathed in the hurt
You’ve spent your whole life accumulate
And you’ve let it make you hate
People you don’t understand
But you’re beautiful and I love you, man
And I know the dial will turn to spin on me
So I let you go free
And I feel your resignation and resolution
But you know that is no solution
So I have to intervene
Did you hear me scream
When my brain came apart in two
That was life splitting me from you
And we both fragmented into an entangled particle
And people start to call me “some article”
But I don’t mind
Because I have not left you behind
You’re still in my soul
Like the bed of truth and rock and roll
And it doesn’t matter, come what may
I’ll sing this song to you and you’ll wake and say
I love you Laura
And as I read your aura
It will speak volumes of colour
And all that made you duller
Will lift and release
And we will make that beast
Retract into its cave
Go back into the dark so grave
Like the boy I could not save
He became the man I crave
