CAPO II        you were a friend to me when my wheels were off the track and though you say there is no need i intend to pay you back when my mind was turning loose and all my thoughts were turning black you shined a light on me and i intend to pay you back when i was a child i depended on a bottle and full grown i’ve been known to lean on a bible but you’re the real deal in a world of imposters and i’ve seen the program make men out of monsters (Chorus) ’cause i still wake up shaken by dreams and i hate to say it but the way it seems is that no one is fine       take the time to peel a few layers and you will find true sadness adam and eve must have really done a number on that garden when the apple was finished leaving behind them a den made of sadness and damn if that can’t or won’t be replenished (Chorus) angela became a target as soon as her beauty was seen by young men who try to reduce her down to a scene on an x-rated screen is she not more than the curve of her hips is she not more than the shine on her lips does she not dream to see and to live and to dance down her own path without being torn apart does she not have a heart i cannot go on with this evil inside me i step out my front door and i feel it surround me just know the kingdom of god is within you even though the battle is bound to continue (Chorus) true sadness true sadness ()       true true sadness (ending)

La chanson évoque le soutien inestimable d'un ami dans les moments difficiles, soulignant les luttes intérieures que l'on peut traverser. Elle parle de la lutte contre des pensées sombres et d'une recherche désespérée de rédemption, le retour à la foi, et le besoin d’avoir des relations authentiques dans un monde souvent rempli d’impostures. Les références à la beauté, aux attentes des autres et aux combats internes révèlent une préoccupation pour l’identité et l'intégrité dans un environnement hostile. Le contexte fait écho à une réalité où chacun peut se sentir perdu ou en proie à des doutes, tout en rappelant que l'espoir et la lumière peuvent persister, même dans la confusion et les épreuves. C'est une réflexion sur cette "vraie tristesse" qui nous touche tous et la possibilité de trouver du sens malgré les épreuves.
