May 2014
In a place ruled by vanity
They build huge shrines for,
The worship of pure inanity,
And here, ego is the law.

The self is the only care
For which they give a ****,
There are not heard anywhere,
The teachings of the Lamb.

The mirror is the object they
Prize above all others,
And it's where they stand and pray
For victory over their brothers.

There is no society here
They have to stand alone
And use violence, threats, and fear,
To get closer to the throne.
