Shackles of Lies

Break out of the chains,
Escape from all the pains.
The world, full of mystery.
The world, full of misery.
One man craves the fortune, one the fame.
Both fill their lives with lies and shame.
Build themselves in a false utopia,
Showing no signs of phobia.
Break out of the chains,
Escape from all the pains.
The world, full of muse.
The world, full of abuse.
We cover the ugly with the mask of beauty.
We consider this to be our rightful duty.
Acceptance does not come with reality,
But comes with some false entity.
Break out of the chains,
Escape from all the pains.
The world, full of great wonder.
The world, full of endless blunder.
These shackles of lies that keep us down,
Make us hide the truth that can be found.
We all hold the Key to the Kingdom,
But our deceit covers the keyhole to freedom.
Break free from these chains,
Escape from all of your pains.
The world, we fill it with poison and dreary.
The world, we will make it into a morbid cemetery.
