The Nihilist - Horrendous

I am everyman

Torn from the womb

Bathed in copious light

Marched to the staccato beat

Reared artificially

Yet a wolf lies beneath this gown

If you peer down

Corners of the heart conspire

Instinctual, cryptic desires

Swallowed by institution

Preempt our inheritance

While watchful eyes record each footstep

Confer benevolent bondage

But I dare not cede

I will curse the sun

I am the one

Curse the sun

I am ancient dust

I am cerebral lust

Condense me

Compress me into solid matter

Molecules harbor

Obscured Histories

I am everyman

I am everything

I am nothing

I am

I am not
