History's Mysteries

Born from The Night
Shrouded in mystery
She's just out of sight
This creature called History

We'll all eager to know
And there's never a lack
Of pure suppositions 
Assumptions, false facts

We consult, one another
Sharing rumors and lies
While burying the truth
Beyond prying eyes

She remains an enigma
For it's, her stock and trade
She'll supply subtle hints
While our thoughts are betrayed 

We may never know rightly
What the truth, may have been
So, we'll have to surrender 
"Cause She'll never give in
