If All I Thought Were True
If priests are princes' hallowed shadowed souls
If devils are angels cast to know
I live forever with a sharp regret it might be a surprise
To know I never wished for death
A hint of misery made its way along
To those who've never harmed or never wronged
If honesty changed the hearts of men
Who could contend?
If all I thought were true
In this great divide that is my life
I fear to think of all I'd undo
If all I thought were true...
Even my own ears would never care to know
What deep inside ourselves our hearts behold a sky in shards
Our world's unraveled parts
Impossible to piece as one in our unending dark
