Manipulation is the essential key
Desensiting your mind to what you don't see
Words are nothing but selfishness we gain
For those of use who expect no pain
Looking into sheets of empty glass
With nothing but an image we fear won't last
If we would only look pass what appears to be
We would find life to be better underneath the unseen
To look on the outside and judge should be a crime
For to many of us lose ourselves in a mask of slime
