The art of manipulation
The things we do to be loved.
Choosing to live drowning in lies rather than standing alone.
Empty promises of a dream life that seems too good to be true.
But the hope that it might actually happen is stronger than facing reality.
Because it can happen... right?
Love fools the brain so easily.
It's no challenge tricking someone in love.
Like puppets we follow every lead, believing everything that's fed to us.
Just to get to that wonderful life, living happily every after.
A time that will never come.
The leader is now bored.
Suddenly reality hits like a brick.
It's like waking up from a coma.
Only to realize all that's left is an empty shell of who we used to be.
