The Lie said to the Truth,
“Let’s take a bath together,
The well water is very nice.
The Truth, still suspicious,
tested the water and found out
It really was nice.
So they got naked and bathed.
But suddenly,
The Lie leapt out of the water and fled,
wearing the clothes of the Truth.
The Truth, furious,
climbed out of the well
to get her clothes back.
But the World,
upon seeing the naked Truth,
looked away,
with anger and contempt.
Poor Truth returned to the well
and disappeared forever,
hiding her shame.
Since then,
the Lie runs around the world,
dressed as the Truth,
and society is very happy…
Because the world has no desire
to know the naked Truth.
So now, the naked Truth, fierce and real,
Hides in the well that no one will feel…
~~~🎶SONG LYRICS🎵~~~
THE NAKED TRUTH
(VERSE 1) (moody, building tension)
The Lie whispered to the Truth,
“Let’s bathe, the water’s smooth.”
The Truth, still wary, dipped her hand,
Found silver light across the land.
They shed their fears, stripped the disguise,
Bathed in the glow of open skies.
(PRE-CHORUS) (building energy, subtle urgency)
But shadows stir beneath the stream,
Nothing is ever quite what it seems…
(CHORUS) (soaring, anthemic)
The world won’t face the naked Truth,
Turns away, blind to the proof.
The Lie runs free in stolen skin,
While the Truth hides where no one’s been.
Oh, the naked Truth, fierce and real,
Hides in the well that no one will feel.
(VERSE 2) (rising tension, faster rhythm)
Suddenly, the Lie leapt away,
Clothed in Truth, leading astray.
The Truth climbed out, rage in her eyes,
But the world turned cold, indifferent, unwise.
Naked she stood, no one to defend,
The well became her only friend.
(PRE-CHORUS) (drums/building chaos)
Society cheers for what’s a lie,
Refusing to see, refusing to try…
(CHORUS) (full intensity, guitars/synths soaring)
The world won’t face the naked Truth,
Turns away, blind to the proof.
The Lie runs free in stolen skin,
While the Truth hides where no one’s been.
Oh, the naked Truth, fierce and real,
Hides in the well that no one will feel.
(BRIDGE) (haunting, dramatic, almost operatic)
Since that day, the Lie roams wide,
Dressed as Truth, nothing to hide.
Society smiles, blind to the pain,
Refusing to see, refusing the gain.
And in the depths, the well holds tight,
The naked Truth waits through endless night.
(Instrumental build: guitars wail, drums thunder, synths echo like a void expanding.)
(FINAL CHORUS / OUTRO) (explosive, cathartic, triumphant yet tragic)
The world won’t face the naked Truth,
Turns away, blind to the proof.
The Lie runs free in stolen skin,
While the Truth hides where no one’s been.
Oh, the naked Truth, fierce and real,
Hides in the well that no one will feel…
(Fade on echoing vocals, like the well’s dark silence swallowing the sound.)
hello lovely Liz this is freaking great ❤️you know it’s funny when I was young I went to the churches and never heard God there it wasn’t until later I heard God in nature and it was surprising how different he was than my expectations… this is beautiful ❤️
Hi 👋 thanks 😊 I left religion just after the covid plandemic when I started to realized the God in the sky was a lie.
You are right. God doesn’t talk to us like people actually think. The real god/source is in you in your very breath it’s in everything that lives.
Powerfully penned, Lizz. A very clever write with amazing wordplay my friend. Amazing read. Appreciate you.
Damian
Thank you 😊
