'Truth'?

Kick me down
and watch me hurt.

The words in your mouth
taste worse than dirt.

I can't believe what you're saying,
it makes no sense at all.

So, I won't believe your 'truth'
even if my only other option is
to 'fall'.

Who are you
to judge what I believe?

No need to completely
crush the heart on my sleeve.

Sugar coated
in the hopes
the kids don't choke on it.

Don't put your twisted 'truths' in their minds.
People who are different are okay,
not just a certain kind.

Peace can be achieved
if we aren't taught from the start
to hate, and hate,
and tear each other apart.

The hope is us,
and the love we can share.
Peace can exist,
if the hope and determination are there.

I'll accept everyone as they are,
in the hopes that you will too.

Maybe we won't have to repeat the mistakes
if we don't repeat their twisted view.

No rose colored glasses,
or stereotypes here,
just the hope for future generations,
and tolerance growing every year.

We'll practice what we preach
and lie in the beds we make.

They won't be as uncomfortable as the one's before us,
because we won't make your ignorant mistakes.

"It's just my humble opinion, but it's one that I believe in; You don't deserve a point of view, if the only thing you see is you.."-Paramore ('Playing God')

"Love is a movement. Love is a revolution. This is redemption. We don't have to slow back down." -Switchfoot ('Love is the Movement')

"..I see the love. I see the hate. I see this world that we can make. I see the life, I see the sky, Give it all to see you fly. Yes, we wave this flag of hatred, but you're the ones who made it.. We are young, we have heart, born in this world as it all falls apart. We are strong, we don't belong, born in this world as it all falls apart...All together, walk alone, against all we've ever known..We will fight, or we will fall, till the angels save us all...We are young, we have heart.." -Hollywood Undead ('Young')
