The Darkness

The darkness,
It hides us in shade.
We embrace it,
We are not afraid.

We jump into the abyss,
With a plan to never return.
We see no end,
To the world we concern,
The power!
Flows free from his word,
This is my sheep farm!
And you are my herd.

The sea,
Swallow the word of the master.
Show no mercy,
He is a disaster.

This is the end,
The darkness will cease.
We are all free,
Says the word of the priest.

You live by one rule,
And what rule is that?
Obey the great God,
Or you'll be squashed like a rat.

One war ends, and a new one begins.
This is not our belief!
And we have committed no sins.

Crack! Go the bullets.
Bang! The grenades.

Shut up and fight!
He says as the world falls and fades.

Do you want to live forever?
He asks in a fading old voice.
This is not my war!
This is not my own choice!

Just leave me alone!
I do not want to be seen!
I am hiding from you,
Your plan, I'm not keen.

Then to death with you!
If you will not fight,
You are no good to us,
I know I am right.

So I am better off dead?
Is that what your saying?
I have done nothing wrong,
Why should I be the one paying?

Crack! Goes the bullet,
Thud! Into his head,
The traitor has fallen,
He is now dead.

His question is answered,
And my disillusions now lifted.
He was a deep thinker,
He must have been gifted.

What are we fighting for?
What is our goal?
Is there a benefit,
To the deaths, young and old?

Don't question its meaning,
It is not your concern.

I look at this war,
And in it I've learned,
Obey the great words,
For they were well earned.

The darkness,
It hides us in shade.
We embrace it,
We are not afraid.

The world is meaningless,

there is no God or gods, there are no morals, the universe is not moving inexorably towards any higher purpose.
All meaning is man-made, so make your own, and make it well.
Do not treat life as a way to pass the time until you die.
Do not try to "find yourself", you must make yourself.
Choose what you want to find meaningful and live, create, love, hate, cry, destroy, fight and die for it.
Do not let your life and your values and your actions slip easily into any mold, other that that which you create for yourself, and say with conviction, "This is who I make myself".
Do not give in to hope.
Remember that nothing you do has any significance beyond that with which you imbue it.
Whatever you do, do it for its own sake.
When the universe looks on with indifference, laugh, and shout back, "Fuck You!".
Rembember that to fight meaninglessness is futile, but fight anyway, in spite of and because of its futility.
The world may be empty of meaning, but it is a blank canvas on which to paint meanings of your own.
Live deliberately. You are free.
