the illusions of life

illusions are described as a thing that is or is likely to be wrongly perceived or interpreted by the senses.

We all venture into the dark
Very few find the light
All are doomed
All are filled with fright
once they witness that cold dead night

Light devoured by the dark
The dark devoured by the light
This cycle is never ending
Those filled with love
Are easily filled with hate

Shapeless they walk
Nameless they taunt
Expressionless they haunt

They claim to love
They claim to care
They claim to see
But it's all an illusion you see

The dead rest while the living are caressed
They hover over you chain you to them
They own you is the unspoken law

Everyone is owned
Until that day when the law whispers for you to go away
Then you are led astray

They call it freedom you see
But in this cold dark place
There is no freedom
And no safety
The reality of the infernally damned life is this
A kill is still a kill
Like all of your life you disobey
You get hurt

They've claimed this as the free land but it's an illusion
The unwhispered and unjust law is this in all of life both dead and living your still nothing more then an item that is owned by another
