Friedrich Nietzsche

"You need chaos in your soul to give birth to a dancing star"

"Only sick music makes money today"

"To forget one's purpose is the commonest form of stupidity"

"God is dead "

"Out of life's school of war: What does not destroy me, makes me stronger"

"Not by wrath does one kill, but by laughter"

"Is man merely a mistake of God's? Or God merely a mistake of man's?"

"Plato is boring."

Thus Spake Zarathustra

Dawning the Dusk

Pieces of glass waxed over a Gray Wall
Or the Galaxies facing a twinkling shortfall
I am charged but for One Possession

They can smile and sing a beautiful Lie,
Sprinkle some stardust in your eye
I am called to undo those Silverspot Strawberries

The Voodoo is charmed by your side
Lucky is the Sun with whom you rise
But I stay awake like a Pawn's Collateral

Stone

Do you know your song
Do you know your moves
Did you watch your step
Did you burn the discotheque

I don’t even watch as you leave
I don’t long even as you linger

Do you make the first move
Do you cut your cake and eat it too
Did you know where to touch
Did you know when to surrender

I don’t even watch as you leave
I don’t long even as you linger

Do you control your chemistry
Do you know your history
Did you make her cry for freedom
Did you stab her while looking in her eyes

I don’t even watch as you leave
I don’t long even as you linger

Do you know the taste of her tears
Do you know the hero of her fears
Did you leave your teeth marks
Did you cause the pain right enough to be just sweet

I don’t even watch as you leave
I don’t long even as you linger
