human
sideways smiles in land of Nod
glitter on the shiny faces of the culpable
while humanity breaks under the weight of sin
alteration of truth slips through the cracks
the unwary drown in lies
the shrouded face of the adversary goes unseen
you believe what you believe
I see what i see
future victims of hate scatter
everybody duck and cover
lest you be picked off
another casualty of naught
insidious visions collide in our minds
our hearts hostage to crime
this just in...more people die
the angles look the other way
nothing to do but collect sorrow's debt
in a world of pain
who is the victor?
