I live in a vortex of mystery. With shadows of the Cresent moon. Riding my ride to an unknown tune whirling towards sand dune. I cover myself in the sand Sometimes I uncover, and walk on land I see the horrors, the soul in pain A brother by a brother slain I see lives ending themselves Thinking who would hurt thyself Was not this cruel journey enough To trouble you, breaking the most tough. I see greed is now a holy Creed There's only thyself to feed A word forgotten, good deed? To soul, to truth they don't heed. Questioning myself what is this place After all the struggle, there's no happy face They bounce they run, and die keeping up the pace Still at the end no one wins this race Everything will end The strongest of prides will bend Your money not will a hand lend A truth, a destiny no one will wend When death comes, and takes your hand And you'll be a property of unvisited sand. I live in a vortex of misery.

Vortex of mystery or misery?
I live in a vortex of mystery. With shadows of the Cresent moon. Riding my ride to an unknown tune whirling towards sand dune. I cover myself in the sand Sometimes I uncover, and walk on land I see the horrors, the soul in pain A brother by a brother slain I see lives ending themselves Thinking who would hurt thyself Was not this cruel journey enough To trouble you, breaking the most tough. I see greed is now a holy Creed There's only thyself to feed A word forgotten, good deed? To soul, to truth they don't heed. Questioning myself what is this place After all the struggle, there's no happy face They bounce they run, and die keeping up the pace Still at the end no one wins this race Everything will end The strongest of prides will bend Your money not will a hand lend A truth, a destiny no one will wend When death comes, and takes your hand And you'll be a property of unvisited sand. I live in a vortex of misery.
