Humans are pathetic, both old and modern
Fearing what we do not understand
Hiding behind shields made of excuses
That can be shattered with logic

The faults of mankind take form
Pretending we are civilized and advanced
When we are teetering on the edge
Far closer than we realize

Fears manifest, and take form
Witches, magic, aliens, same ignorant fear, different face
The leaders control the masses
As they have discovered Salem's Secret
