8. Painted Truth (3:11)
Recalling as a child all the stories I was told
Of the Cowboys and the Indians
And the heroes that were born
Created from the legends from the battles of the plain
The truth of our convections
Lies buried beneath the grain

Learning from a teacher
Written in a book
They turned my mind to a painted lie
Of how the land was took
I heard a scream, manifest destiny
Did they stop to wonder
I would see I'd been deceived

Torn by love for country
And desire for the truth
Should I have known right from the start
What they were forced to do
Would it change my mind?
Should they tell me lies?
Would I have loved my country less?
If not for the painted lies

Should we be lied to?
Given a painted truth
