lyrics

Always famished for life’s indulgence
Be the glutton for grandeur and praise
Through the ardor and success of others
You bring nothing, yet fill up your plate

Eat well now this banquet of lost dreams
Repast of the corpulent dead
Gourmand of all traits you are lacking
To face up to your life left unsaid

Now lament the future that can’t be
Due to your imperfect past
But whose past is perfection?
Your excuse not to fast

Always famished for life’s indulgence
Be the glutton for grandeur and praise
Through the ardor and success of others
You bring naught but your own unlived ambitions. Full with nonfulfillment.

Swollen from deeds
Which were never achieved
A refection of needs
Never to be conceived

You have grown fat on your lack of self-worth
Feasting upon unlived days
You are obese while yet so unfulfilled
Feast upon these days

You have grown fat on your lack of self-worth
Feasting upon unlived days
You have grown fat on all these days

Once you have feasted on days never lived
Sleep, procrastinate
For there is no time for aspirations
You feast on days
You feast on these days

Swollen from deeds
Which were never achieved
A refection of needs
Never to be conceived
And with ardor you feed
Adipose in your grief
Unrealized reverie
Never once to achieve
What you’ve come to believe is your life

about

Annihilust

“A dead soldier. A shrieking woman. The recorded images of a heart at peace. Art is optimistic. Suffering is justified as soon as it becomes the raw material of beauty. I am not at peace: I don’t want to find justification for the sufferings I see.”

Jean-Paul Sartre, Iron in the Soul
