Lyrics
I once tried to show you the end of man
I attempted to reveal the ultimate fate of humanity to you
Just to let you see that we will never be the same again
To make you understand that our existence will undergo a profound change
I truly thought I found forever
I genuinely believed I had discovered eternal love
In this fate-less endeavour
In this purposeless undertaking
I realised it took the thought of death just to feel alive
I realized that contemplating death was necessary to truly feel alive
I have so much to learn from your demise
I have much to gain from witnessing your downfall
In the evening of life
In the later stages of life
In the rays of the winter moon
In the moonlight during winter
I came to appreciate
I came to understand
This truth and it comes with gloom
This truth, accompanied by a sense of sadness
That the sight of the stars is all that still makes me dream
Only the sight of stars remains as a source of inspiration
It tore me apart
This experience caused me great emotional pain
It felt so good to dream
Yet, it was strangely satisfying to dream
I was deluded by grandeur
I was deceived by a false sense of superiority
Illusions of my own end eluded by my contentions and corroded by our reality
My own illusions were ignored, challenged, and eroded by our harsh reality
I used to dream of painting and then I'd paint my dream
I used to dream of creativity, but now I'm haunted by unrealized possibilities
But now that all my mind's eye can see is what could have been what must not ever be
All my mind can envision is what might have been and should never come to pass
Your mind it paints a picture, to your soul there's a disconnect
Your mind creates an image, but your soul feels detached
Your words they speak of fractures and regret
Your words express fractures and remorse
But as the sun arose, as I distilled my own existence
As the sun rose, contemplating my own existence, I realized my discontent
I realised that I am I and I wish I wasn't
I recognized that I am myself, and I wish I weren't
I scrape the deepest depths of this abyss we deem existence
I explore the deepest depths of this existence we consider an abyss
This is why I sought his words, what are we if not resistance?
This is why I sought profound words, questioning our identity as anything but resistance
I saw that thought arise, the notion of revolution
I witnessed the emergence of revolutionary thoughts
It materialised before my longing eyes
These thoughts materialized before my hopeful eyes
Am I still human?
I question if I am still bound by human limitations
Or have I transcended this mortality?
Or if I have transcended mortality
You died because you searched for happiness at the risk of finding the void
You perished because you sought happiness, risking encountering emptiness
So delve, delve into the void
So explore, explore the emptiness
