Nothing's As It Seems

I hear the screams
And every moan
But nothing’s as it seems,

Every day the light beams,
Birds have flown,
I hear the screams,

The moon still gleams,
The ball is thrown,
But nothing’s as it seems,

Form teams,
Stand upon a throne,
I hear the screams,

She beats and creams,
Clothes are sewn,
But nothing’s as it seems,

Water flows down streams,
Everyone’s alone.
I hear the screams,
But nothing’s as it seems.
