from desperate songs by great friend of mine

lyrics

“…because in all my dreams I walk next to an old, tired ass. When we meet the end of the world he walks over the edge. I stand and pivot on heel and I sing:

‘At last, at last, at last!
Sweet sun. Oh, sweet sun.
Take me to a dawn of sequential brilliance.
Take me to a time of succumbed equity.
Usher a life of squandered excellence.
Release me from this cruel dark fate.’

“In all my dreams, I burn out my eyes and sit in darkness.

“This darkness where every melody has been sung and every phrase of descent has been said by men much greater than I. I am no arbiter of truth. I am reason: A spark of light stepping on toes in the dark.

“For arrogance is bliss for the ignorant and humble is the man with an open mind, because when those bells toll we are all fucked the same.”
