False Messenger

You came to us with all this strife

Complaining about your broken-down life

Bringing along the destroyer himself

Cloaked in these rags

Veiled in the night

Stalking our paths

It was you who sold us out

Shadowed deceit danced enchantingly

Shedding your woes only to disease

Casting lies to bait innocence

Do you have your catch?
