You See

I look at the
            examination of the truth

and watch phobias swell     
           inside 

               inside clouded angst

but you see black and white

  and listen to the devils tongue 
 as he cries out from a molten cores fire

we are            
       a pawn in a chess game

listen to the man who has the answers
    he silently says 
when I`m right I`m right
but when I`m wrong
                 I`m still right

   do as I say and not as I do

the masses they cheer as they hear
     lets teach them a lesson

                arrogant ignorance

it`s an antidote to symptoms itch
these shiny jewels that hide the truth

sparkling they blind

                dissect the layers
shield the reality that stands behind
the travelled road 

               it   narrows at the end

when lavas river devours
and rapids rise quickly 
                from calm streams flow

the master pulls the strings of his
consummate plan
  dance    
        puppet     
               dance

dance to the main plan


as the subliminal messages
soak into your sponge like mind

no wonder we are now who we are
