As a badge of honor
But there is no honor
In your truth
Like stainless steel dog tags
On a world of deception
Like red knitted stockings
You flaunt price tags
But not even that truth
Can conceal,
the pain in your eyes
Your whole war of lies
You wear your truth
So picture perfect
But there is no perfection
In your truth
Like flawless smiles
On rubbles of pain
Like make-up
You hide those scars again
You chant your mantra
Of loose love and letting go
Because holding on
Brought you pain
So you wear you fearful truth
To never love, again
You wear your truth
With degrees and titles
But there is no success
In your truth
Tied up in your own strings
You disassociate
With the struggle
But a million
relations
Can reveal
The pain you feel
Those wounds
that never heal
Because it is you
Who can't accept
your real
