|
Iron mask |
|
Clad in armor |
|
Vast fear |
|
Disguised as wisdom |
|
In the end |
|
The fortress falls |
|
Nothing survives |
|
That is false |
|
Constant desire for virtue, the higher |
|
Achieve the right to judge our brethren with a smile |
|
Distortion clinging salvation hangs on by a thread |
|
To all we think we know |
|
Illusions of what is gained |
|
To be favored or disgraced |
|
Is to live in fear |
|
No matter how we try |
|
We walk the path alone |
|
Cherished beliefs |
|
Dependant upon the past |
|
The past and the future |
|
Phantoms in the now |
|
Overwhelmed with the struggle |
|
Try to achieve redemption |
|
Grapple with the values |
|
Of those who seek control |
|
Impressions of the righteous |
|
Such a pitiful waste create the seeds of hate |
|
Loss |
|
Gain |
|
Perpetuate |
|
The mental tyrant |
