"Just as modern mass production requires the standardization of commodities, so the social process requires standardization of man, and this standardization is called equality." "Falsity cannot keep an idea from being beautiful; there are certain errors of such ingenuity that one could regret their not ranking among the achievements of the human kind." "Non-violence is the greatest force at the disposal of mankind. It is mightier than the mightiest weapon of destruction devised by the ingenuity of man."

Since the beginning of time, there's been one basic principle of man Increasingly dependent on conformity to survive Giving away to science and technology It's been this way for centuries (They say...) Kill off the man, for he is the devil amongst mankind Destroy what is deemed as different, for we can live "Under God" Dominate the wicked, to proclaim yourself as one They build churches, missionaries to spread this filth Never knowing the internal damage that's stapled the Earth for eternity The inevitable is here (I am...dreaming!) I dream for better days... How can we prolong this? This is an abomination that shall never end Society is a fraud Heaven is a false promise Mixed feelings of misanthropy I'm surrounded in purity and hypocrisy (Am I...) Nailed to what you believe? Renascent iniquity Cursed improperly Respect declines, more followers succumb to this lie The inevitable is here Humanity dies as a martyr

"Greed is a bottomless pit which exhausts the person in an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction." "Man is the only animal for whom his own existence is a problem which he has to solve." "We live in a world of things, and our only connection with them is that we know how to manipulate or to consume them."

Without being defiled... His savage barbarity was equaled by the consummate coolness I was ready... There was no rejection He told me with great solemnity "Go forth!" I must forge! I must go back! Before I do, I must lure him into another section of the forest My legs were torn in sundry places and covered in blood In the wilderness, forlorn with hunger, the plan was set I concluded Starvation Voluntarily, I began to eat my own flesh This is what I wanted The sound of the wild depressed my spirit Filling me with the most ineffable sadness Hatred, manifesting.... Self-loathing, oppressing.... I often found myself regretting my very existence This thought was often shallow and grave This was never easy to overcome Impulsively Reluctantly I sank down, mourning over my wretched condition Wishing myself to be dead
5.
I have never understood the art of predisposing against me I consider it a great honor I feel no curiousity (After all) It is a distinction one must have earned The overestimation, the predilection for pity is not something new I accept no one, I denounce you all This does not discourage... This does not keep my eyes from being open (But...) What else is this? If not the end of my humanity? What else could this be? If not a recipe for my...decadence?

Seeping darkness gathering from within my soul Terror is the shadow of my fear Publicated in front of the world to see Assigned to the theme of being under the guillotine They didn't wait for the opportunity to believe Solemnly, they wait for retribution Waging warfare against the tyrants Sunlight falls from darkness into darkness Bound for glorification There will be no reconciliation! (repeat 2nd paragraph) The mystic shade is perpetuated, consumed against all Sworn to the black Enslaving with terror and haste By fate ordained Spiritual apocalyptic heresy The dawn has come - The plague engulfs me... Enlightenment will bring us to the promised land We shall find redemption Succumbed impending pandemic righteousness Falling from above, summoning humanity to its death Eternal winter cast from beyond There will be no solace! (x3) In ordaining this apocalypse Salvation forsaken... ...Never to return
8.
So abhorred They are so dedicated, they carry a lost passion In the sense of word and gesture, mankind's faith remains withheld In opposition Is this the remnant of the fallen messiah? The fallen, blind, religious dogma Must we hold the unquestionable to be true? Is your faith within the confinement of your interpretation? (Let it not inflict or conflict!) Let it not inflict gloom as soon as we hear the word... Torture!!! (Torture?) Torture... Who adheres to the concept of immorality? Can I? Better yet... Can you? Let this not be deemed immoral! Whether we submit differently, difficulty or gladly One gives another what they want or deserve. Doesn't that sound strange to you? Doesn't that sound immoral? Let immorality remain in security, Let abhorrence be at one with silence.

Neglected, searching for a candidate One to neutralize the disease Intertwined, the tremors grow stronger Infidel, all walks of civilization are useless What will become of this nature of divine suffering? Subconsciously, it haunts... Shaking anger throughout my bones Therefore, another gray day? (Whenever will this pass amongst me?) I rearrange the spasms to hallucinations Convulsing... Silent suffering... This isn't a question of ethics An agent has seeped into me, it controls my life force I'll never admit to my procreated sickness A slave, subservient to pestilence Contagious thoughts of survival Intervention is dysfunctional And to withdraw, is to die Biological psyche condemned Rejection constructs delirium A commitment I cannot forsake Biological psyche condemned By all walks of society Enthusiastic parasitic dehydration Frustration lasting every waking moment Compulsive delusions and anxiety riddle the mind How much must I take? Whenever will I wake from this delirium? My outcry is met with skepticism Don't renew the thought of survival Hopeful riddance of pollution An undetectable deterring of reconstruction Complication consuming dependency Indeed, another gray day... One more taste to bring tormented bliss (Repeat 2nd paragraph) Another injection keeps this mortal shell alive Eradicate the delirious state One of which my soul may never wake
