Blackened shrouds of time The simple mind breeds the fallacy Encrusted with insatiable lies Our future is presents past Deceitful calibrations of disguise Perceived through distant lenses Palpitating wretched existence A sound thought becomes a silent voice Letting go of what we know Become a statue in the land of lies Bend a knee to the kings of our demise Compromise the future seed Sprout the roots of life down deep Black widow veil Our backs are your foundation Timeless is the forgotten hourglass Frantic churns in the endless sands Coexistence is a systematic demise The mutilation of a desecration A failed fortitude reveals the blackened truth Mimicry of the third degree Perch the raven clad in dusk The consciousness cascaded before us Topple down like dominoes Force fed belief of their whispers Fill in the gaps where words don't fit Forever flowing rivers of nil Monumental truths enveloped in minuscule lies Seekers of the foreign trove Discretion hides behind a falling sun
