   Apathy their stepping stone,     so unfeeling.
   hidden deep animosity,           so deceiving.
   Through your eyes their light burns hoping to find.
   Inquisition sinking you,         with prying minds.

   Lady justice has been raped, truth assassin.
   Rolls of red tape seal your lips, now your done in.
   Their money tips her scales again, make your deal.
   Just what is truth? I cannot tell cannot feel.
