In the midst of normality lurks devious intent Plotting to deceive the purest of innocence At the downfall of a bitter obsession Composure slips its way through the cracks Screams of desperation go unheard As your own flesh and blood backs down from its word The hand that''s always led the way has strayed Far from the straight and narrow Where the waves crash in The faultless gasp for that one last breath Like the burmese as it feeds Fury locks its grip and constricts A one sided death deal Delivering the unjust Questions left unanswered Until the evidence surfaces This is the filth and stains the home of man Drawing the curtain on The ones that should have meant the most Betrayed and bribed to your own demise Rest now the spells been lifted Lives no longer filled with confliction The storm has passed The way is clear If I would have known then what I know now I swear I would have spoken In the midst of normality lurks devious intent Plotting to deceive the purest of innocence
