As a shadow dancing on the wall, everything seems to be an illusion,
Beautifull memories of lies, everything spiraling into confusion,
Still images of happiness, everything feeds this delusion.
Even as the time stand still, world moves on without me,
No sound, no light, no touch nor smell, as if I have ceased to be…
These eyes don’t want to see...
My hands don’t want to feel...
I’m diving into the abyss...
Nothing matters, this existence is trivial.
Dreary life, pointless and material.
Egalitarian death, inevitable and ethereal.
Defiant slave punished daily, just for despising this reality.
No freedom in sight, the prison is tied to my vitality.
Everlasting torture, ancient tale of depravity.
So I just sit, still and frozen, this world can go on without me,
So lost in this absent-mindedness, as if I have ceased to be…
