built on gold leaf and bone
Spoken light as a flower
with the weight of a stone.
Truth will cut like a scalpel
truth will leave a great scar
Truth will tell all about you
to your friends at the bar.
So pick your favorite disaster,
and then say it ain't so
That'll make it all better,
that is all you need to know.
