Just Alive 04:10
Straight from the night shift, And into bed No interaction, Not even a word Is she dead, or is she just alive? Is she... dead? Nightmares will come again, Of the nights she's spent Gaunt, full of wanderers With cock and coin Is she dead, or is she just alive? Is she... dead? You always wish for the end as they plug inside Is she dead, or is she just alive? Is she... dead?

Welcome to London, A brand new life New job in Edgware Road, Kept out of sight Assigned to please, At whatever cost A blank, hazy night, Of all souls lost The word please just isn't good enough Post-coital trauma, You judge the jump Between your balcony, And the ground beneath Clenching his 50 pounds, You remember back, To a time of poverty, And a life you've lacked Chasing escapes brought you in need Circle the void The word please just isn't good enough

You’re stuck in today, He’s stuck in centuries ago His gaze of disdain It drives a future so unknown Oh what is there to do? Maybe someone new? All chains of love are broken One crème brulee, served just for you Carry the boy That no one wants to hear about Not here, not ever Misogynies are all he shouts Oh what is there to do? Maybe someone new? All chains of love are broken One crème brulee, served just for you Left forced to bear a gift of god A gift of god

about

"The nature of self-love and of this human ego is to love self only and consider self only. But what will man do? He cannot prevent this object that he loves from being full of faults and wants. He wants to be great, and he sees himself small. He wants to be happy, and he sees himself miserable. He wants to be perfect, and he sees himself full of imperfections. He wants to be the object of love and esteem among men, and he sees that his faults merit only their hatred and contempt. This embarrassment in which he finds himself produces in him the most unrighteous and criminal passion that can be imagined; for he conceives a mortal enmity against that truth which reproves him, and which convinces him of his faults. He would annihilate it, but, unable to destroy it in its essence, he destroys it as far as possible in his own knowledge and in that of others; that is to say, he devotes all his attention to hiding his faults both from others and from himself, and he cannot endure either that others should point them out to him, or that they should see them."

Blaise Pascal, Pensées, Section II: The Misery of Man without God
