Song language: English
Spoils |
Endowed with the art of casting names |
Upon its beings |
The humans claim dominion |
Over every living fucking thing |
Proud as |
Purpose |
As they became to walk the earth |
As they arraigned the common creatures |
Caught within the corpus-cursed |
Conscious human brain |
Caught within the corpus-cursed |
Conscious human brain |
Every word ever written will fall short |
Of its intent |
Even sung or spoke or screamed |
They will betray what they have meant |
They will betray what they have meant |
They will betray what they have meant |
Language is the heart’s lament |
A weak attempt to circumvent |
The loneliness inherent in the search for permanence |
All the future ghosts |
Who scratch their names in wet cement |
Demeaning meaning as they shout out at the emptiness |
Demeaning meaning as they shout out at the emptiness |
Abstractions are stake between the anima and animus |
Deflesh the world of human destiny |
Behold the world in other people |
Life is clarity |
