negation consumes itself - cryptodira lyrics

Loading...

don’t look down
the ground will consume you
don’t look down at what you’ve wrought
the void draws out your fears
falling down
your selfishness consumes you
falling down into your past
desire flickers out

all that the totality gives out for free is ideology

so does truth just fall from the sky? does it even fall?
does it stay among the stars and constellations?
does it stop when we’re all dead? is it only in our head?
i must believe the truth needs us as much as we need it

truth collapses in when we tear ourselves from it
the sky is falling, with it, my disbelief
i can’t re-suspend it
i can’t find my way back into the joyful eye
let me back in without turning me to stone

without subverting subject and object
without burying the living under the dead

and yet, reified relationships are all we have to exist in

partial objects are all the privileged see in this world
the lord and bondsman’s struggle reproduced indefinitely
in a spurious infinity
when isolated, the devil of self-interest takes root
knowing only the nothing you are is knowing nothing

a subject without its predicate is never ending

the devil’s despair is the greatest of all
but the devil’s despair requires his privilege
the devil’s despair is a sickness unto death
but the devil’s despair is borne from self-interest

being-in-and-for-oneself is empty without the other

so let me be-for you
before i fall back too far to realize
that h-ll awaits the isolated
sublime is the loving flame that lifts
and thaws, and embraces
instant and eternity, now and forever

and if death has, carved in its beckoning hands
inscriptions of the ultimate end or the absolute truth
and in eros’ hands we find the lifelong pursuit of these:
the movement between them is uneasy
the movement between them will never end

for pure light is as blinding as pure darkness
yet we curiously live on
for pure light is as blinding as pure darkness
for the living are still ruled by the lifeless
and yet we curiously live on

waiting for the second coming of the moment of realization
