Ode to "Ich Tu Dir Weh"



This song reminds me almost

Of what it’s like to feel

It broke through the empty nothing

The place I sit

The place I lay

The place I stay rather than break

Undisturbed for hours

Watching humanity struggle along

Like toiling ants in the blazing sun

I keep thinking

There must be more to life

Then just this

Perhaps I was born in the wrong century

I should be living

Back in more ancient times

When it meant something

To ride in with the

Motherfucking cavalry

Now we are afraid

Afraid to speak

Afraid to fight

Afraid to love

Afraid to express ourselves

Afraid of loss

Afraid to die

Afraid that after all of this

All we ever become

Is dust

I yearn to be a part of something

Larger than life

Something that actually has value

Mundane petty life

Has bored me

Beyond tears

Beyond comprehension

Time stretches out endlessly

Yet stands completely still

I fucking hate this

I hate your smiles

I hate your laughter

I hate the sunlight

I hate your urges to “think positive”

Also known as deluding yourself

That “everything will be ok”

What if I don’t want everything to be just ok?

I hate people who say weed isn’t a drug

I hate whoever came up with the label of alcoholic

If only these problems could be solved

By something in a bottle

If it were a drink

I’d consume it

If it were a pill

I’d swallow it

If something has to be destroyed

I’d say burn baby burn

So tired of the mediocrity

The hypocrisy

The mistaken belief that as long as you believe

And “do the right thing”

That it will all turn out ok in the end

Sometimes it doesn’t

People who are all talk and no action

While the very world we thought we knew

Crumbles all around us

Perhaps people are too oblivious

Too busy with the hypnotic glow

Of their fucking smartphones, their laptops, their ipods, their social media sites like facebook and twitter

Anything but notice how fucked we all are

And when it all comes crashing down

People will notice too damn late

And for those who would prefer to judge me

I’d rather be angry

Then be too afraid to say anything

For fear of offending someone

Or not to feel at all

Anything is better than returning to the abyss

And I’d much rather burn burn burn

Then quietly fade away

And for those that have yet to figure out who I am

I have been places that are very very cold

I have been places that are filled with darkness and flames

I am chaos I am neutral

I am pleasure I am pain

For now just think of me as your friendly neighborhood catalyst
