Deceptions

We fire away, we become our own extinction

The reasoning behind this acts is a matter of constriction

Consuming, elaborate ways to find the will

The will to be that which in its path everything finds conclusion

Bleeding roads meet their decline in the promised land

Deceptions that deceive them to commit any atrocity

In the fight to survive there’s no enemy or divine being to obey

In a vision, of a world lift up in flames, we find our way to burn it all

Across the sea, they try to seek salvation

For thе sake of those they had to lеave behind, fleeing from the holy war

The smoke blows from the ashes of a society that watches upon the will of gods

Invades the toxicity of the air that feeds us and corrodes the purity of the souls in pain

Where are the hands of so many deities who supposedly watch over us?

Why do they remain inert before the image of a corrupt and conforming world?

Our will has become an irreverent gesture of disdain for its abandonment
