While we work
Through all the stress
It may just seem
That it’s hopeless
Cornered in
They try to make
The truth appear
From something fake
Planting seeds
Of what comes next
Then lay the words
And the context
Within your mind
It does then stir
And not long after
Seems to occur
Because you knew
Well in advance
It helped to keep
You in their trance
Waiting to see
When they will give
The people back
A chance to live
But some won’t wait…
