Oh how it burns through the sounds I hear
Bringing me down with a malady of fear
And now I hope things will be more clear
Else I will fall to the laughs and jeers
I see whats invisible and yet its not there
I see a cheated man as treated fair
I see a single bird as a pair
I see alot but I dont know where
Blades are soft against my skin
Im turning gold back into tin
Im doing everthing just not to win
Wotking hard just to earn a sin
Statues speak more than real men
Five pounds is heavier than ten
Its safer now in a lions den
And more blood is spilt by the pen
People speaking out but dont know what they say
Working hard to earn a living everday
But they dont know that its all childsplay
To get rich theres only one way
Decieve the people in order to protect
Yourself and keep a slogan so they never detect
A plot underneath designed to select
All the treasures for you; you never regret
I see light in a chasm; darkness in the sun
I am alone but im here with everyone
I've finished what I haven't begun
I feel the pain of having fun
Donkeys are talking; men are braying
And yet I can understand what theyre saying
Im playing the same game theyre playing
And all the time Im still trying and praying
That the Sun comes up another night
That I can stop seeing this but keep my sight
I will keep on with my hardest fight
A constant struggle to overcome the right
I see things I've never known
Commited deeds that wont atone
Speaking into a broken phone
Conversing now and Im all alone
On the line I hear someone talking
A reflection of me but its shocking
The grounds torn and the earths rocking
My teeth chatter; my knees knocking
The sky trembles and falls down on me
Im crushed between this and yet im free
From this delusional reality
I close my eyes so that I can see
The truths written out as lies
The happiness and yet I cry
Because I lack the need to try
To rise above go sky high
And yet thats lower than the deepest hole
In my heart thats precious in my soul
Its hope and yet thats what Ive stole
Ive made misery now my new goal
For in this fever; i fear my misfortune
I feel as if Ive gotten more than my portion
Of pain and sorrow; my hearts undergone a torsion
All this misery from one extortion
