Mystery

They say

If you can't beat ‘em then join ‘em

But I would rather annoy ‘em

Deployin' factual tactics

Let the fanatics destroy ‘em

I'm enjoying’ the moment

Only cuz I have no opponents

Only ardent proponents

Of my many hardened components

Won't it blow knowing

That the only people going

Down below the river flowing

Will never make it back?

Only those controlling

The patrols that just keep growing

Can stop the ship from slowing

And going way off track

Your victory’s a mystery

A blister upon our history

Hey mister sinning blissfully

Whisper nothing's to the dark

A cyst upon our liberty

Feasting upon misery

Such a sinister sight to see

Infernos start with just a spark

The mighty titans fight

Beneath bright fluorescent lights

As the day becomes the night

There's no compassion, only spite

Who is right and who is not?

Who is caught up in the plot

Who's got nothing but a shot

To show they are something

That they're not

A brainiac with a knack

For mathematical facts

Casts black magic attacks

At the Cadillac of the whack

With a smack of the mask

He blasts back at the past

An outcast reacts fast

To the masses that don't ask
