Flickering Light

(album: Fearmonger - 2020)

The brighter they shine, the darker their shadow
In which wealth is created
Industrious efforts conceal, protect returns on investment
Aiming at perpetual growth
With the foolish belief one day it'll trickle all the way down
The brighter they shine, the darker their shadow

Overabundance for a chosen few
While global impoverishment
The tragedy unfolds while some make profit on it
The baseness of mankind has another chance to shine

An unheard plea for cleansing by fire
In these desperate times, one can now only hope
That the higher they will get means the harder they will fall
The harder they will fall

Aiming at perpetual growth
With the foolish belief one day it'll trickle all the way down
An uprising is awaiting
Time waits for no man and tides are now slowly turning to black
The brighter they shine, the darker their shadow
