Veil Of Deception

Veil Of Deception - Death Angel

Affectation was an early sign

Of a twisted mind

All virtues had faded away

Apprehension made her cold

But warm she was inside

The child within her died

And left her with a heart of stone

Surface anger was a thin disguise

Yet at night she cries

Behold the pain in her eyes

Degradation was a grind

Her true self left behind

Compassion you will find

Hidden by a veil of deception

And so the story goes

That's the way she chose to live her life

And anybody knows

The way it feels when you hurt inside

She's running from herself

The game of life in which she played

Looking back upon the early years

There was room for tears

But she chose to push them away

Condemnation was a vice

She chose to roll the dice

And so she paid the price

Misery was her only friend

Inner feelings were a neutral zone

Though she tried to condone

In a world she faced so alone

Her salvation came too late

And on that day she died

No one even cried

Forgot about the veil of deception

And so the story goes

That's the way she chose to live her life

And anybody knows

The way it feels when your hurt inside

She's running from herself

The game of life in which she played
