Mortality's Confirmation

Let the shadows fall
The darkness rises
Stretching forth its claws

Shadows lurk
Amid the fragments
Of mortal men's minds

Truths forgotten
New truths created
Deception and delusion reign

So it is in all
Times of trials
So it is with men

A moment of trust, of truth
Then overriding, like a storm
Shadows of doubt and denial

Will the light of truth
Ever shine again across these lands?
Or is truth forgotten?

Pains and shadows
Shadows and pains
Mortality's confirmation
