Fallen under a deep trance
A spell that can't be broken
With words of lies and misconception
The thick fog stretches farther

Rain showers from the heavens
Acid from the droplets falls on flowers
Poisoning their beautiful color from bright and light
To mournful and torn wilted petals that took everything

At long last a sunny day
The rain has stopped and flowers filled with joy
Behind all things below the sun
A shadow will never change what it is
