Infections
Sean^45 2000 (Limpopo)
Shallow dreams brings shadows,
shadows brings more shadows,
An endless circle of breeds,
Yet the only survivor i see is in the mirror
Never thought i would be lost,
lost in the eyes of power
A drunkard's last drink into sobriety,
a hopeless man's last chance at hope
whats left of a hobbit in a dawf?
What the lord brings as faith has disintegrated
For lust for power grows indefinitely
A man receiving honor only to be a fool
The love of a witch brings tranquility
The whispers of a thief brings gifts
The look of a starker brings confidence
The smile of a killer gives life
A decaying mind has been infected
infected wit hopes and dreams
Dreams that cloud Alzheimer
hopes that destroys memories
