Just Grazed

You tried to bring back assassination You crazed his ear, aiming high A whisper in the ear of fate But truth won't let you lie In shadows thick, the plot unwinds From webs of tangled words With twisted tales of yesterday's fake news Misinformation flying Aberrant translations crying You thought that you could change the world But only spread your lies Illusions built on shifting sand A dream that never stays The echoes of your silent scream A whisper in the haze Confusion reigns in darkened minds The stories that they spread An empire built on fleeing dreams Of words you never said Misinformation flying Aberrant translations crying You thought that you could change the world But only spread your lies
