Electronic-based, melodic song with some guitar overlay - trying for a bit of a dream-like feel

Words and music by Val Jensen

The idea of the truth ending came to mind while thinking about the 2024 election and feeling like we were coming to the the end of truth and the beginning of the other bad stuff.
Truth Ends

The sun does not shine
The stars disappear from night skies
In the void, we’re lost you and I
Never again will truth be on our side

What was sacred is now sold
Forget what you know, do as you’re told
I watch the light in her eyes grow cold
Trust was more precious than gold

Why can’t you see how the truth ends

Forgive me if you can
This goes beyond what I can understand
I used to believe there was a plan
But when they came for me I just ran

The airwaves pulse with hollow sound
So listen hard when they come around
What you lost is what they found
And they will use it to lay you down.

Why can’t you see how the truth ends x

Love the opening to the song, with the trumpet figure, and the piano in back, and the melodramatic lyric, a female vocal emotive and also edgy, sounds like a experienced , authentic emotion behind it, chord changes recall a dire Straits song here and there, beautiful, "when they came for me I just cracked," kinda brilliant in places, kudos...
