"There is nothing that proves that we belong to the best race and that this race is blessed by God." - Max Stirner
If you'll just slip on the breathing apparatus
It's time to learn the meaning of decay
Let's twist the ceremonial knife
As dull as it is
What happens when I play god
There's no hope left for the white man
And no rainbow to hop on
God's children on a quest for suicide
Walking where we die
Here we die
You can't walk away from this one unscathed
When you see the mask of humanity fall from capital
Do you think you can come back from this?
You built it with your own fucking hands
This infatuation, the secret of how we walk this earth
I'll be there
When the bullet enters your holy son
I'll be there
When your fortress's walls are torn to the ground
I'll be there
Because I was here from the start
I'll be there
Because I am the angel of death
For all that you love
I am the angel of death

“Mass culture is enlightenment in reverse. Its goal is precisely to wipe out that last little garrison of human autonomy.” - Rick Roderick
And you thought they were there to help us?
i'd be refreshed to find somebody not soaked in delusion
In a world where
Stumbling around filled with nausea
Overflowing with panic
You'll be pleased to know you're just normal
Maybe it's time for a truly revolutionary act
But you always do it too late
Divisible all the way down
Worn out humans with threadbare skin
We rose up for this, every day, every single second, coming to our senses
Life has been dissolving
Like atrophy
THE ONLY CONSTANT IS YOUR UNIMPORTANCE
THE ONLY CONSTANT IS YOUR IRRELEVANCE
And I will let you die in vain
Preferable to being known to the wheel of history
Churning the soul into flesh
I beg you to forsake me
Before the blood is revealed
Angel, I have to let you out now
There's so little revealed in those eyes
I swear I once saw them open wide
Only with fake hatred
This is how an empire is built
What did you think we could achieve?
Phronesis doesn't even translate
It'll only be worth it when ashes remain
I've got the devil in my crosshairs
As you breathe you became the architect of something we couldn't conceive
Every look on your face was designed to keep me perfectly in place

"We have art in order not to die of the truth." - Friedrich Nietzsche
I thought I was the first person they brought life to
Like diamonds extracted from your mouth
But the sun slips from its throne eventually
Sunken eyes like the spoils from coal mines
Is it funny when you fall down and kiss the ground?
I'm looking at a blade that's big enough to take both our heads off
Paint these walls any colour you like
I've found it always comes out grey
Retaining the need for objectless rage
The horizon of meaning has dried up and lives turn into shells, into coins, into gunshot wounds and withered flesh
We worked these plains unrelenting
Hands raw and burning
Our lives just mean so fucking much, don't you think?
Love spoken in warped tones
Futile innocence at the dismemberment of common value
This body is a vessel and I've worn a million masks to hide what I want everybody to fucking see
It gives me chills just imagining what could happen
And it turns my soul to ash
This is the border between time and matter
This is where language always fails you
This is the border between space and memory
This is where language always fails me
For some of you, this is just another moment

"Bring something incomprehensible into the world!" - Gilles Deleuze
This is a politics of decoding and remaking
I'll show you the top floor of hell
Where they breathe the smoke of your desires
I'll show you the vilest place on earth
It seems we're already there
And if you could look at what made you
For one fucking second
Would you find something you're happy with?
That you could call your own?
Can you show me why you deserve to exist?
Approach the limits of transgression
Set by this city of thorns
Snap your wrists and call it joy
Forgive me when I tell you that you wear your life like a chain
Like a slave wears his chain
Which tongue will bleed first?
Let me see your name written in breath
If you're lucky, they'll name an unpleasant word after you

“Although I feel that my tragedy is the greatest in history—greater than the fall of empires—I am nevertheless aware of my total insignificance. I am absolutely persuaded that I am nothing in this universe; yet I feel that mine is the only real existence.”
― Emil Cioran
Codexes filled with redacted figures
Inscribing the notes on social eschatology
And I am golden
I will save one world by destroying the other
I was never going to be here long
Where does my body end and where does my reflection begin?
I need to find a solution to the humanity in me and the rest of us
My existence desecrates every corpse on this earth
And I settle in to a new kind of despair
Dreams of phantom limbs amass in the moonlight
There was a snapping, and a breaking, and a loss of hope
Quickdraw thoughts on the count of three
I can feel my stomach burning
Repeat the process while claiming there's still hope that failure isn't the only thing we're assured
Running from our fate
We're running from our fate
Drowning in open air
Suffocating in empty space
Your faces make me claustrophic
The future
What a meaningless term
I'd consider it an act of mercy
If the floods came and washed us all away
Wash me away
I don't understand why you're unhappy
You got just what you wanted
And there are no more vacancies in hell

"Sluts fuck better." she said to me
"So what's with this Scarlet Letter shit?
There's no A on your chest
Dumber than a bag of Hatebreed fans
There isn't enough medicine in the world for my headache
But if you'd prefer, go ahead and sit on your holy hands and wait for your stuck up 16th century rapture
A little skin and you'd fuck me just like anyone else would
As we head ignorance first into Armageddon...
See you in hell
God damn your eyes

Make no mistakes
My voice is clear
And though it may be a subtle threat:
Mayflower, swing low
Because your love has such few regrets
We cannot distinguish all of the world
So celebrate
And sing along
It is a gift
Where I belong
Straight down
And to the east
I place my hands out in front of me
(We are all the crowd)
To the sweet by and by I come
(To the sweet by and by I come)
To the crowd be blessed
I swear I won't let you choke
You give me nothing but rest
And a loving hand
I belong to the war
I belong to your side
And I can't hold my breath but I swear that I think it's a start
That's the nature of the beast
(Celebrate)
If we have nothing left but death
(Make no mistake)
It's a clear but subtle threat
(Celebrate)
"The south is where I lay my sword
(Make no mistake)
And the stage is where my heart will rest"
We are the crowd

OH MY GOD
What have we learned?
OH MY GOD
We're doomed from the start
It's time to admit we're wrong and move on
Kick our habits, self improvement
Is anyone getting nervous?
We should all be afraid to die
I don't care as long as we, as long as we get there
Fought, you fought and you got what you want out of me
Caught, don't get caught, you'll be fucked if you know what I mean
Are you scared you can't tell me what your life's about?
Thought provoking, it's all we need
It's all we want
THE FEAR OF GOD IN US
IN ALL OF US
