momus - the existentialist lyrics

Loading...

i was a teenage existentialist
“we’re all going to die” was pretty much the gist
and everyone in sartre’s room was on the same page
a room of gloom, a page of desperation and rage

but where there is despair
there’s empathy as well
there are other people in h+ll

and death was the universal solvent
a colossal and calamitous involvement
we thought wе had it all worked out, but then
mankind somehow dwindlеd down to men

and [], heaven knows how you suffered
at the hands of a man you were so wrong
to make your lover

your secular religion borrowed sin
but not forgiveness or redemption
for you whoever once has crossed the line
must wander endlessly through time

you like to keep forgiveness for the few
you and you
but not you
you draw the lines dividing this from that
determine who can wear the bl++dy hat
you mount campaigns to scare and also sensitize the others
fair enough, all men are clearly not your brothers

and [], heaven knows how you suffered
at the hands of a man you were so wrong
to make your lover

i was a teenage existentialist
a wishy+washy liberal humanist
i thought i had it all worked out, but then
mankind somehow dwindled down to man
