lyrics

Ancient eras of human absence
No law or truth pronounced
A world uncontaminated by the word

The time before the creation of the gods
When nobody questioned the nature
And no representation had come to life.
The blind passage of time.
The deaf manifestation of phenomena.
A starry sky that no one could claim for himself.
Deep quiet.

After an eternity of unconsciousness
universe is founded by conscious organism
It 's the thought that ground the being as such.
In the silent eternity
being and nothingness coincide.

Being...Reflects your form!

Sun! Shine on this chaotic tragedy!
The human being
is at the crossroads of misery and greatness
Its dawn has just passed
but already rises
the shadows of the end.

Man! Smile in front of the absurdity of the world
With an eye observe the stellar abyss
with the other the coffin that awaits you.
Only crazy smile will save you from despair:
when you realize that any idol is dead
life should be consumed in purest egoism

Find in the mind the quiet
That precedes the appearance of the mankind
Back in the remote past
Loneliness will be the best experience

Forget freedom
Your body can not escape
the laws that govern the universe
Your every thought or action is determined
As the fall of an apple from a tree.
So there is no fault or merit
In a necessary life.

Embraces atheism
In the morning light:
The sky is pure without gods.

Search complexity,
and only in it placate the spirit.
We want the maze and the ball,
the shovel and the ground,
the abyss and the ship.
Only in this way you live!
And we want to die lost in the maze,
buried by meters of ground,
castaway of abyss!
Only this is a worthy life.
