The truth is what you say you want,
But I know better, and so do you.
You just want the truth you want to hear,
And of everything else, you don’t want a clue.
The truth is, I have to lie a lot,
To be who you want me to be.
Because, if you knew what I really was,
There’s no way you’d still want me.
The facts are simple, and tell a different story,
Then the one we live in now.
That facts, and truth aren’t always the same,
I think you know that deep down somehow.

you just want the truth you want to hear – that is a very good line, actually one of my spiritual teachers just said something similar. It is important to find a way to gracefully end a conversation with someone who wants their truth validated. Have a great day!

The truth can be touchy… especially when someone says they want it, but can’t handle it if it’s not what they wanted to hear.

Yes, the truth can be a fickle thing. Thanks for reading Jana.

Just clicked the your posts’ link from another blog and Wow-sh I loved it.
Specially these lines “Because, if you knew what I really was,
There’s no way you’d still want me.”
If we look at our everyday relations we are always hiding at-least something from each other.
Here are my views regarding this topic in the form of a comic:
Followed your blog 🙂
