Knowing Is Killing

The man who knew too much..
simply fell hush 
fell into the sea of turning lies and misery 
those crushing waves turn violent 
as the sea turn red and the sky sprayed violet

the world was never to know those tales the man long to tell
tales of lies 
tales to dark to tell
so the world fell into bliss
unaware of the darkness pouring in around them
