| Where is the truth | B |
| Hiding in plain sight | C |
| With neon lights | D |
| Brightly Shinning | E |
| - | |
| Where is the truth | B |
| Hidden behind a big desk | E |
| Where it is seen at best | F |
| With two eyes dressed in a suit and tie | G |
| - | |
| Where is the truth | B |
| Wrapped around a red white and blue flag | E |
| Attached to a set of laws in a garbage bag | E |
| Saying something and speaking nothing | E |
| - | |
| Where is the truth | B |
| Around the necks of those who are free | A |
| Hanging like forbidden fruit in a tree | A |
| Saying nothing and talking loud | H |
| - | |
| Where is the truth | B |
| Sweating in the noon day sun | I |
| Burning like a raisin one by one | I |
| Talking from the side of their red necks | J |
| - | |
| One side truth | B |
| The other brushed it aside | K |
| Giving us a ride | K |
| From one hell to another hell | L |
| - | |
| The other side kept the lies | M |
| Tucked it in their money belts in their pocket full of lies | M |
| And if the world burns up they wouldn't care for many reasons why | G |
| Keeping secrets that secrets keep those secrets kept | N |
| - | |
| So where is the truth | B |
| I bet it went to hell and back | E |
| And colored red and black | E |
| Still lies run deep | O |
| - | |
| Look closer and magnify | G |
| The germs of lies under us all | P |
| Small medium and tall | P |
| Lies are running so deep | O |
| - | |
| I said the lies are running so deep | O |
| Like rivers flowing and flooding our very streets | Q |
| Drowning every person covering them like they have been beat | R |
| Like Katrina no one is around to help | S |
| - | |
| Where is the truth | B |
| For some flushed down the toilet of life | T |
| As we wipe our tails with the tissues of misery and strife | T |
| - | |
| Where is the truth | B |
| It turned into lies | M |
| And it's turned upside down besides | U |
| Will it matter anyway | V |
| - | |
| A lie is a lie is a lie | G |
| No matter how you turn it friends | W |
| A lie is a lie is a lie | G |
| It may never ever end | X |
| Because that lie is a lie | G |
| If you steal you'll lie | G |
| And a lie because a lie is a lie | G |
