They tell one lie, They speak one truth. 'It's easy to heal, But you'll remember all your scars.' The latter of the two, a truth. Though that which precedes, Lies through it's teeth. Fangs of darkness and deceit, Designed to forge a man with a black heart. If not for the comfort of the summer sea, I too would've succumbed to the gray of this city. Morphed from a young and happy form, To a soulless monster, 'Homo-Malum.'

Homo-Malum
They tell one lie, They speak one truth. 'It's easy to heal, But you'll remember all your scars.' The latter of the two, a truth. Though that which precedes, Lies through it's teeth. Fangs of darkness and deceit, Designed to forge a man with a black heart. If not for the comfort of the summer sea, I too would've succumbed to the gray of this city. Morphed from a young and happy form, To a soulless monster, 'Homo-Malum.'
