Veil
A city’s luminescence is but a front
The masses seek a truth while in the wake of a false prophet
Rabid animals seeking to complete their own twisted agendas
Speech comes from the mouth in a froth of bitterness
People can’t see the poison lying underneath
They have already become afflicted with its influence
Spreading the false word and growing to no end
Only once the city is consumed does one see the true light beyond the veil of perception
