The unfair world
Constructs the mightiest citadel
On the foundations of insecurity
No ground is high enough
Confined within the chambers
Distanced from reality
Miniature, the world becomes
The world shrinks unwillingly
Frantically, life runs within four walls
Promised a life of eternity
False dreams rein the soul’s freedom
Stone walls are the only audience
High ceilings are mistaken for the sky
Soul is scantily clad, forgotten forever
Life embellished from outside
Reflecting a false image of grandeur
For a brief stopover
A sacrifice that alienates eternity©
