Behind the Veil

Reality cracks
Showing the bowles
Behind the veil of deceit
Sliding; shifting; never still
Like rotten; slimy snakes
With venom dripping from their fangs
They strangle all hope
And poison what's true

Any street becomes an altar
When innocents are sacrified
For envy; anger; greed and lust
There's no such thing as justice

Pain denies the soul

Dark prophecies escape their dreams
The predator's instincts are gone
No need to hunt; no virtues to keep
Life collapses silently
All values destroyed; just cheap substitutes
But greedily swallowed by the ignorant flock
Brainwashed masses; no sense for pain
Blood is wine and white is black
