Waiting

What's waiting around you in the darkness

In the shadow of the truths, the doubts and the lies
A beast lies in waiting for the creatures to rise
For the beings to realize just what’s in hiding
In the shadows of their denying.
There we lie there and wait for the truth to be known
For fear to be installed in all the ones that we know
For the wicked and cruel to bow on their knees
In hopes for a new reality.
With our teeth bare, and our talons sharpened
We wait in the ready for a fight to emerge
For the ones who think they can fight a great force
And seemingly make through the fight alone
We wait in a form, not much like their own
Where we mask the truth in the cold pale skin.
We talk like then and walk in their crowds
But in our shadows we show, just really what there is to hide
Our eyes give away the beast that’s inside
And our thinking proves that we are not of the kind
Yet to others we’re insane
So we stand and wait on the inside
For the time to come for the darkness to rise
For our shadows to fall
And revile what’s inside.
