the other - acathexis lyrics

Loading...

i saw him slowly fading out
for years he visited me in dreams
dreams that my memory struggled to erase
retired into the peace that oblivion confers
looking to evade its memory
that follows me like a dark litany

even with the hastened step of the years
each day has lasted an eternity
deceiving us in its succession
we are nothing but prisoners
of an infinite trap that we strive to name

it doesn’t matter anymore
soon we will be gone
there is no rush

closing my eyes, i wake up
and passing through that fog that clouds reason
i find myself in the other, of whom i only know
the small pieces that i recognize in myself

in that escaping dance
like an endless cycle
who escapes and who pursues?
condemned to never find one another
maybe it’s the eternal night
that connects us in its emptiness
finding in us
its expression of pain

but the light refuses the stares
and the awakening fades into regrets

do you really think your suffering matters to the universe?
look at the sky and tell me if a star has ever wept for you

it doesn’t matter anymore
soon we will be gone
there is no rush

how is one to know if those dreams
were nothing but the awakening
of the other who dreams of me?

who knows if i’m not the other
who begs for death

and i will become one with all, and i will become no one
maybe i have been the other
perhaps, i am no more
