When all we can view involves a deep conspiracy,
What we perceive becomes a tangled rhapsody.
In the shadows of doubt, truth hides under a shroud.
A veil of deception where reality is not allowed
Whispers of secrets echo through the night.
As darkness consumes, hiding truth from sight.
Mysterious whispers, akin to a haunting melody,
Lead us to a path of uncertainty and treachery.
In our minds, there is a world eager to be seen.
Above the truth, all facts are veiled by a screen.
Paranoia fills our view as we're lost in the haze.
Doubt is our compass in this strange phase.
Our eyes perceive illusions of what formerly was.
Shadows whisper lies as we tumble for their ruse.
In this labyrinth of doubt, we look for a way out.
Yet the walls shut in, blocking any escape route.
The realm unseen holds secrets untold.
The more we tackle, the greater we're controlled.
For in this realm lies the grasp of sanity.
Where we are lost in a web of our vanity.
Fearful flaws destroy conscience and ruin truth.
It is still alike a night shadow, pound and smooth.
