Around I followed him for days
There''s something different about his ways
From the dark alleyways I learned all too much
The ways of the serpent, the messages and those guns
Everything they do is to set a new world order
Just like the red helmets, in their ways they faulter
Trying to make history and every man''s thinking to alter
Lies were sold about a land filled with grief
Short-sighted like their soldiers
They seek from the chains demanding gold to be free
False promises and a harsh message to follow
Those deemed unworthy separated
Taken and butchered until their skulls were hollowed
Their own kin now in their quake tremble
The children like those machines
Messages swallow and again mumble
Wonder keeps me up at night when I hide away
Is there any hope left here and a god to pray?
It all feels far too gone with how they chose their cards to play
Reluctantly when I could use my words and speak
Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation.I dared not do anything but draw my steel
A child who from his peers was outed
Who''s body was beaten and cries muted
No family was left in this world as they were sacrificed
Anger and vengeance remain as his thanks he describes
Nothing to give as he ran away, not caring if he lives or dies
Lies were sold about a land filled with grief
Short-sighted like their soldiers
They seek from the chains demanding gold to be free
False promises and a harsh message to follow
Those deemed unworthy separated
Taken and butchered until their skulls were hollowed
Their own kin now in their quake tremble
The children like those machines
Messages swallow and again mumble
Wonder keeps me up at night when I hide away
Is there any hope left here and a god to pray?
It all feels far too gone with how they chose their cards to play
Now I too like the child constantly keep running away
And in certain walls on paper I see my face
What feels like him I couldn''t suppress
Simply standing by and watching him buried with the rest
Although much lies that I cannot fully understand
A faint feeling looms over me in an instant
That he might carry words of what seeds the serpent plans to plant
Lies were sold about a land filled with grief, but is it the same for him too?
Short-sighted like their soldiers
They seek from the chains demanding gold to be free, unlike how he was acting like a fool
False promises and a harsh message to follow, but the exception lies within his heart
Those deemed unworthy separated
Taken and butchered until their skulls were hollowed, I can see regret when he knows what he has torn apart
Their own kin now in their quake tremble, only to cut in and try and make it better
The children like those machines
Messages swallow and again mumble, he did not care about the sayings of another member
Wonder keeps me up at night when I hide away, but now I instead am on the hunt for my prey
If there''s for then no god to pray or he instead ran away
There''s always something that can be done, even when all hope looks gone
