To stay responsible casts a shadow all too
oppressive
That someone may notice. I avoid them;
You are no more than an imitation, a sound of
doubt.
Let us not forget those auditory hallucinations;
What is really happening when that happens?
Rationality was a saviour, yielding to the
unconscious.
Nothing has escaped from their hands, they all
believe,
They look for reasons, the cause of our
falsification.
Reality shall challenge contradiction, what is
left?
Living is no more than the symptom, the question-
We believed ourselves – another error.
We acknowledge, become conscious but nothing
exists!
They have the illusion beneath them, I fear the
end.
With us it’s different, its origin transcendental.
Conscious of the conclusion, we grow beyond words.
-the hammer speaks.
