Tensions Rise

Weaving their web, getting in heads, stirring up feelings of pride

Biding their time, hiding online, secretly poking the bear

Promoting hate, manipulate, spreading despair to help them prepare

Hitting a nerve, sit back and observe, watching the tensions rise

Making up tales, changing details, carefully crafting their lies

Playing on fears, festering for years, each delicately conceived

Truth undermined, myths intertwined, it only matters that it's believed

Growing distrust, quietly corrupt, watching the tensions rise

Throwing out bait, accumulate, malice to antagonise

Trigger emotion, trigger algorithm, building a thirst for revenge
