Stark lies adorned my mindset for too long -

I'd always wondered how things could be so;

The time for recollection is far gone.



Soft honeyed words were held on many tongues -

I heard them and could not deny them, no;

Stark lies adorned my mindset for too long.



The truths of yesterday have faded into wrong

And I am left still wond'ring why, although

The time for recollection is far gone.



I stumble in a frenzy of warped song -

Unhappiness lies on me, a plateau;

Stark lies adorned my mindset for too long.



No understanding finds my ears alone,

No threnody to thoughts now down below;

The time for recollection is far gone.



Aghast my mind delves deeply, on it goes -

It finds dark prejudice and its death throes.

Stark lies adorned my mindset for too long;

The time for recollection is far gone.
