The Truth

I don't want to hear what I want to hear.
I'm not okay with "everything's fine."
I want to know the truth.
When you say "don't worry" I'm worried.
I know we can't all have our way all the time.
I want to know the truth.

I'm strong enough to hear the truth,
and if I'm not than I'll lean on you,
because I'll know you're brave
if you're strong enough to say it.
