Senseless oblivious towers
monuments to absurdity
oceans of ignorance
Humanity at its cruel best!
Oh…let me breathe,
leave me to escape to my dwellings
take off this blunt masque &
sail to ice-clad mountains
where bottomless wells and impenetrable
forests majestically rule!
Man…what an awesome creation!
So eager to destroy his own genesis
- this dying planet
unconsciously hungry for infernal damnation
For myriad aeons past I have travelled this galaxy
ages ago I´ve ceased to be human
for I am no longer, lest a mere shadow
a dying ray of Sun at twilight or
the terminal drop of water in Fate´s fountain
Chorus:
When all noble values are (shamelessly) inverted
and brainwashed minds endure
when animal essence is forgotten
Misanthropic horror…magnified
Decadence is all I see
Triviality lies before me
Nihilism - the only solution
Misanthropy - the final escapism
Your world sinks to vomiting proportions
visions of decay spring everywhere
entire lost civilizations
succumb to a "worldly" oddity
Woe and torment be behind me…
the maze of such reality
There is still Art in few of us, wise
and an inner trueness to Mother Earth
the raving oceans in our grey hearts
and the breath of fire in our eyes
"In this paragon of persons weak
who pray some Lord their souls to keep
Let them die before they wake
I praise the Earth, lead me astray!"
