Endowed with the art of casting names upon its beings
The humans claim dominion over every living f**ing thing
Proud as purpose
As they became to walk the earth
As they arraigned the common creatures
Caught within the corpus-cursed, conscious human brain
Caught within the corpus-cursed, conscious human brain
Every word ever written will fall short of its intent
Even sung or spoke or screamed they will betray what they have meant
They will betray what they have meant
They will betray what they have meant
Language is the heart's lament, a weak attempt to circumvent the loneliness inherent in the search for permanence
All the future ghosts who scratch their names in wet cement
Demeaning meaning as they shout out at the emptiness
Abstractions are stake between the anima and animus
Deflesh the word as scourge of human destiny
Behold the world in other people, life is clarity
