The Shirk
Unveiling the Dark Tapestry: The Shirk's Disturbing Message
Lyrics
I had thought to think
I initially intended to contemplate
The ice has thawed and caused this thing
The situation has changed, and this occurrence has resulted from the ice thawing
This thought that I had caught from a newspaper
This idea originated from information in a newspaper
I was taught to think like the others who saw the thing
I was educated to think similarly to others who observed the situation
How it came down still beckoning
How it descended, still inviting
With it's long finger to the pavement
Extending its long finger toward the pavement
The pavement.
Emphasizing the pavement
It may cause a sink
This may lead to a decline
Body and mind distorting
Causing distortion in both body and mind
The younger ones are weeping
Youthful individuals are crying
While their elders are leaving
While the older generation is departing
No one's sleeping with the thought
No one is at rest with the idea
That's caught them by their head
Caught by the thought in their minds
It's set inside, it's set so deep
The thought is entrenched deeply inside
No chance to hide or chance to be
No opportunity to conceal or be left aside
Left to the side.
Abandoned to the side
The most merciful thing left by
The most compassionate thing left by
The shirk who'd known them
The entity who knew them
Was their carelessness to think upon
Was their negligence to reflect on
Or correlate their components.
Or connect their elements
Minds alike, akin to each other
Minds similar, resembling each other
Sharing thoughts, they are one brother
Sharing thoughts, they form a collective brotherhood
Shed family for another
Abandoning biological family for another
And family is another matter
And family is a different concern
Bowing down on a dirty mattress
Bowing down on a filthy mattress
Look to a shirk god of the static
Turning to a god associated with negligence and static
It seems to be so relaxing
It appears to be calming
But I fit in and I'm not acting.
I assimilate, and my behavior is genuine
