In shadowed crypts, where darkness reigns
Lurks Oni, demon of ancient pains
Horns twisted, eyes aglow
Malevolent spirit, forever to grow

With iron clubs, souls are crushed
Eternal torment, forever hushed
Japanese lore's most feared sight
Oni's wrath, a dreadful night.
"In shadowed hues, it blends and hides,
A master of disguise, it glides.
Soul of change, heart of deceit,
A phantom self, it subtly meets.

Its colors bleed, like shifting fate,
Ephemeral, yet forever great.
What's true, and what's just a guise?
The chameleon's secret, in its eyes." ,
In the shadows, it's waiting
A vessel of deceit, a heart that's hating
The truth is hidden, the lies are revealed
In the box of lies, the secrets are concealed


I'm searching for the answers, but they're hard to find
In the maze of lies, I'm losing my mind
The box is whispering secrets, a siren's call
But the truth is elusive, and I'm bound to fall



Can you hear the whispers, in the dead of night?
A voice that's calling, but the words ain't right
In the box of lies, the truth is distorted
But the secrets are hidden, and the lies are exported


I'm trying to escape, but the box is locked tight
The lies are suffocating, and the truth is out of sight
I'm searching for a way out, but it's hard to find
In the box of lies, I'm losing my mind


In the shadows, the box is waiting
A vessel of deceit, a heart that's hating
The truth is hidden, the lies are revealed
In the box of lies, the secrets are concealed


In the box of lies, the truth is distorted
But the secrets are hidden, and the lies are exported.
In twilight's hush, where shadows play,
A whispered promise faded away.
A thread of trust, now frayed and worn,
A heart once open, now forever torn.

The wind it howls, a mournful sigh,
As moonlight dances, with a treacherous eye.
A path unwinding, through a midnight land,
Where echoes of deceit, forever stand.

The stars above, a distant hum,
A reminder of a love that's gone numb.
A flame that flickered, now reduced to ash,
A memory of joy, forever past.

In this dark landscape, I wander alone,
Searching for answers, to a heart of stone.
The truth it hides, behind a mask of pain,
And I'm left to wonder, if love will ever reign.
In the shadowed halls where whispers linger,  
politics dances with the syndrome of corruption,  
a waltz of power,  
where drugs and money are the tune,  
each ear a prisoner to the siren call.  

Promises paper thin,  
like smoke curling in the air,  
they fade before the light of dawn,  
leaving only the residue of ambition,  
the stains of greed untouched by conscience.  

Votes exchanged like currency,  
fingers stained with the ink of betrayal,  
as the puppets pull their strings in secret rooms,  
where the air is thick with unspoken truths,  
and the price of a soul is just a ticket.  

They clad their rhetoric in silk and gold,  
their speeches wrapped in veneer,  
but behind closed doors,  
the language is raw,  
a formula of corruption carved in blood.  

What is justice but a game to them,  
a pawn moved on the board of exploitation,  
while the hungry cry, the weak tremble,  
and the powerful smile,  
counting their spoils with gluttonous glee.  

But beneath the surface,  
the tide bends,  
rebellion stirs with a hunger for change,  
as truth, like a seed buried deep,  
begins to rise.  

The poison they feed us might spread,  
but the antidote is resilience,  
the call of unity against the echo of greed—  
a movement forged in the fires of hope,  
where drugs and money will no longer bind us,  
and power will answer to the people.
In the galaxy, stars brightly gleam,  
A massive collection, a cosmic dream.  
Gas, dust, and dark matter,  
In spirals, they scatter,  
Held by gravity's powerful theme.  

Ellipticals glide, irregulars play,  
In the vastness of night, they dance and sway.  
The idol we praise,  
Through the celestial maze,  
Guiding our hearts, light-years away.
You're in a deathgrip, tight as a vice,  
Holding fast to shadows, to memories of twice.  
Foundations crack beneath the weight of our fears,  
As whispers of sorrow echo through the years.

I can see the end, a horizon stained black,  
A bleak reminder of all that we lack.  
A place laid to waste by humanity's hand,  
Dreams turned to dust, like castles in sand.

Yet in this struggle, while hope seems so thin,  
We search for a spark, a flicker within.  
For even in darkness, where pain holds us fast,  
The spirit can rise, transcending the past.

So when you're in a deathgrip, hold on, feel the strain,  
For within that constriction, there's a chance to break free from the chain.  
To build from the ruins, to heal and create,  
A new world emerging, where love conquers fate.
