It's a cruel world we live in, hypocrisy and deceit,
All that is pure has gone in a swirl of hatred.
The depraved society, in which we are going under with our heads in.
We have never even endeavoured to open our eyes
And see the big picture.
Our minds are completely taken over
by what we call the etiquette of life.
Orthodox ways of living I abhor,
But what I loathe the most is the falsity;
People, who tell you words of flattery
And disguise their eyes behind broad, fake smiles,
While smiles are replaced with sneers
The minute you turn around...
The riches these people live for,
The life they've always craved for,
Is just as empty and unreal, as the belief that they are superior.
In fact, they are ruled by their inferiors, all the mortals who care
For inner riches and not material wealth: the very root of evil's vines.
