The penalty of truth my dear
Is not so cruel as hurt or fear
The tears you wept made crystal clear
That without faith you disappear
The many times I begged you please
You've watched me cry on bleeding knees
And touched my soul with your disease
An endless pain with no release
In time the sting does not subdue
The fame you insist to pursue
Tear it up, then you review
Throw away what you can't renew
Reflect on what you left behind
The worlds in which you were confined
For this life your soul was designed
Sensations now all intertwined
