If I Should Die |
| Delusion or |
| Worth my lifetime |
| How would I deem what I lived for |
| If I should die? |
| The toil must be done |
| Days are passing by |
| But tomorrow might be the last one |
| And I shall die |
| A habit is for us to deny |
| Spinning a web of silver lies |
| To hide the many agonies |
| All around us, for every being |
| We seem happier reduced by hunger |
| Flattering ourselves to be starved |
| Utterly craving for all that lies beyond our grasp |
| On the path of darkness and desire |
| A sweet scent of extinguished fire |
| We’re getting worse, eager to curse |
| Not the curtain, but what’s behind |
| Intoxicated within the smell of humankind |
| Today should be like every remaining day |
| Definitely all that I ask for |
| Whatever the moment when I’ll go away |
| That does not change anything at all |
| Happiness is complete in the here and now |
| It will not increase with a longer time |
| No other place but where I’m sitting down |
| This one quiet throne that I recognize as mine |
| A busy life and good relations |
| Just like everybody else |
| Meeting these people’s expectations |
| Worrying about judgments |
| But in my chest this acute pain |
| This unusual taste in my mouth |
| And all that counted now seems vain |
| Suddenly overwhelmed by doubt |
| I cannot be struck by these throes |
| With all my feelings and my thoughts |
| It would be too much awful woes |
| That my efforts had been for naught |
| On the chase of dreams and their demise |
| A sense of nonsense in disguise |
| This is not fair, we cannot bear |
| Yet another kind of torment |
| So disappointed, in absolute bewilderment |
| Today should be like every remaining day |
| Definitely all that I ask for |
| Whatever the moment when I’ll go away |
| That does not change anything at all |
| Happiness is complete in the here and now |
| It will not increase with a longer time |
| No other place but where I’m sitting down |
| This one quiet throne that I recognize as mine |
| Maybe it is going to take me nowhere |
| But I reckon not having to go anywhere |
| I don’t keep any illusion to hold dear |
| I just need to be ready to disappear |
| Void comes from the self alone |
| Fear from what we believe we own |
| Stoics across time give an advice |
| May death be daily before our eyes |
