The t.v. said just make sure you're old enough,

And let your feelings tell you when it's right.

What went wrong? she thought it was really love;

Now she wonders why she just can't sleep at night.

She knew the rules but they were too old fashioned;

Was it worth the price she has to pay.

[Chorus]

It's either truth or consequences, there's no other way;

Put truth aside, the other takes its place.

Well, you can close your eyes but that won't make it go away;

The truth or consequences must be faced.

The headlines say our world's in a lot of pain,

Hurt from all the selfishness and greed.

What went wrong? like sheep all have gone astray;

We'll reap what we sow, don't be deceived.

His truth's been given and it's there before us,

Written on the page and in our hearts.

[Chorus]

As sure as god made the sun to shine,

He made the rules we must all live by;

He loved us too much to leave us alone

To our own devices.

[Chorus]
