Held captive in not one chamber

But many inside this pyramid of deception

Of mastered illusion

Various levels of knowledge

No common ground

Lines have been crossed with covert, invalid actions

As bridges burn, a release must be found from within

Anoint ourselves

Holding the flames high for others

Who do not see they are trapped in this maze

The human mind has become imprisoned

Thoughts are no longer our own

They are manipulated to believe lies that suffocate other lies

Conformity is a must

The masses fight among themselves

Whilst enemies approach

With haste behind closed eyes

We have become disconnected from reality

Through fear and conflict

This storm has enraged the ocean, we numbly float upon

I will no longer tread the water for fear of drowning

The depths I have sought have immersed me

Impossible to return

Sunlight has taken the hand offered by the night

A church bell, in the distance laments

With a sombre tone
