Embrace the Most Potent Autonomy

from The Holy Fool by exhausted prayer

/

lyrics

Falling always
Flailing at the reins
Careening down the path of fools
Chasing ego’s ghost down promising corridors
Only to find his chamber bare

Stripped of agency
Wallowing in confusion
Meandering morosely with the crowd
Aimlessly asea
I vomit in the squall
Rescued only by epiphany’s embrace

A moment of clarity
Birthed by a taste of nothingness
To oblivion I now state my vow
Self destruction, the only craft
May the grandest design be mine

Grin of contentment grows as gravel heals into the wounds
Lay with whores
Stare into the sun
Embrace the most potent autonomy x2

But little could I know
The sweetness of this journey’s end
Sublimated annihilation
Never to gaze upon this world again

Open my veins and taste the sweet proof of free will
My search for meaning now complete
Reaching epiphany while bleeding out
Gazing down upon the lost
