Just because we know we exist

Doesn’t lift us from the ranks of the beasts

Fighting a constant and bitter battle

With our own, overblown egos

Pointless existence

Self-awareness is an illness

This merciless curse

That both frees us from ignorance

But shackles us to the

Constant contemplation of our

Pointless existence

What is man to the ape

Man is the most primitive

He does not know his place

Man exists only as a bridge

To the ubermensch

Pointless existence

Futile efforts

To bring meaning

To this empty life

True strength

Comes from facing

The truth behind their lies

My spirit will burst the shackles on my mind

And rip through the decay of form

You are not my audience

The words of the ubermensch

I will release myself from the burden

Of this life
