Stand Alone

So fragile and fragmented
Height of human arrogance
Crave the embrace of Jesus or Buddha
To warm the cold starry sky
Great Spirit or God the Father
Five Elements or fecund Goddesses
Figments of projections give
Pallid colour to our hurtling planet
Stand alone
Stand apart
Endure the meaninglessness of Being
Stand alone
Stand apart
Transform the meaninglessness of Being
Stand alone and behold the beauty you have wrought

Our Deeds
04:12
|

|
Our steps are not see
Our voices are not heard
Our deeds, too, are dead
Our cities will become dust
Our temples will fall
Our deeds, too, are dead
Our cultures are transient
Our history is irrelevant
Our deeds, too, are dead
We must not look to past or future
We must not look for meaning without
We must create our universe
We must reach out and give life
Then we will endure

Dance of Vacuum and Void
04:16
|
|||
|
Our eyes look up to the night skies
Swept up into vacuum and void
Leaving behind culture and collectivity
Those repulsive snares and traps of acceptability
The cold eyes of the stars
Offer no illusions or delusions
The vacuum, a record of our insignificance
The void, a mirror of truth
Vacuum and void dance as graceful sisters
Harbingers who embrace us with stark reality and cold words
They offer a gift for those who hear their lovely song
They offer a gift for those who learn their lonely song
