Truth, Bitter Truth

Where did it go to my youth?
Where did it slip away to?
Who was it told the truth — the bitter truth?
The truth we didn’t want to know.
What is it do you know? What is it can’t bear it?
Who did it — do I care?
Who is it — when did it happen and where?
Why did you let me know?
How could you think I’d stand it?
You know I’d pay you back
I did it and it happened — do you care?
Where did it go to my youth?. ..
Who is he — do you know?
This man of power but a fool
They said he was so high and pure
They also said he was cruel.
They killed him
did you see?
They knew he couldn’t take it.
They wanted lies — he told the truth
They did it — and it happened — who cares.
Where did it go to my youth?. ..
Why did you let me know. ..
What is it — do you know?. ..
Who is it — do you know?
What is it — can I bear it?
Who did it — do I care?
Who is it — when did it happen and where?
Where did it go to my youth?. ..
