Blinking with mad gaiety As the inward voice emerges With a savage, ungovernable moan Void the purse And void the palace These are the varied displays Of a worthless culture On the blood-red soil
Wandering in the gutter With a jaded voice Where, vast and minute The human races boil
He looks upon high With a glance full of fear His face bears the marks Of a constant losing fight Those suns that rise Beneath erratic skies
To be vibrating with life Like a young animal Drifting in islands of rubbish There lies within But the joy that destroys
And the void militant Sings loud in affirmation See the silent writing On that oppressive wall above
Rising and spreading Like a surge of blood Like the choking grasp of a snake That provokes dire visions
Hanging over the abysm Of existential nausea No one in his senses Would trust the universe
His viscera and cells Have been galvanised Into an insect-like activity On the point of breaking through He is completely unsure Of himself and his purpose His silence seems to hold A threat or criticism
The writhing bodies And rapt, empty faces Riding the blast beat In movement and noise
Waves of hostility Flow out from their eyes From the blurred faces The defunct offspring of dung
The floor shifts under his feet He stands at the epicentre Of the vast web of life
And in that moment He knows the reason for suffering For fear, sex and death Indifferent to ideas and sensations
And every single night The people will be uglier With an affinity For profound suffering
On an endless speedup Into a nightmare vortex Of mechanical disintegration And meaningless change You complain about pains At which he would only smile You suffer because of deprivations Which he would not even feelTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
