Marionettes

Truth in redemption’s pyre
Scorched out, no longer in life
Awaiting these souls on fire
In life, there’s no brighter side
Once hateful as all its slaves
More fertile than its enemies
Impossible to control
But still a reason for us to live on
Keep away from scarecrows dreams
Dismay feeds all these marionettes
See the truth and manipulation
With lies they breed all these marionettes
Truth over denial inside a thought bleaker than life
Luster of all that remains is the day
When we all are the same
Adapted to black
Still on way down
Beyond redemption
In a state stronger than hate
Truth over all dreams
Deceit to feed the desolated breed
The point of all that’s been done
Is the moment we all are gathered as one
Adapted to black
Still on way down
Beyond redemption
In a state stronger than hate
Keep away from scarecrows dreams
Dismay feeds all these marionettes
See the truth and manipulation
With lies they breed all these marionettes
Keep away from scarecrows dreams
Dismay feeds all these marionettes
See the truth and manipulation
With lies they breed all these marionettes
