Cover art for (Per)version of a Truth lyrics by Mudvayne

To me it means before we are born we are all pure and good, planted in this world by the "light", however we are planted in these bodies witch are basicly contaminated, we grow up and evolve but the lies control our life's, everything we learn is based on a whole life of only lies.

So he starts to wonder if we are all the children of something greater than we can imagine (the star), the star guides us on a path, and in the end of the path we realize that this whole journey (our life) we end up as liars and betrayers, just by trying to fit in with the rest of humanity.

Like, if you think about the word "table salt", the table is our life, and the salt is truth. If we'd realize that someone has been lying to us, making us believe that "table" is the right word, that makes "table salt" wrong witch makes the the truth a part of a lie.

So nothing is really 100% true.
