Homo Iratus

The Age Of Numbers

Homo Iratus


Before "me" innocence 
Protected me, shielded me 
Words of the wise support the pillars of the world 

A false legacy of miasmatic ideas 
Of a fanatic father and a subjected mother 

The world ...what is it ? 
A flashy game 
With a beggining, middle and end 
A royal theatre of tyrants 
With a sterile imagination 

Newborn "whys" 
On one foot 
A punishmet for every question 
Answers "why ?" 

With the passing years 
The moist of philosophy got desiccated 
And nothing but dry numbers were left 

The world : numbers with simple excellents 
Of corrupted teachers, a life of "yes sir" 

"Why?" nourished a dream and a reality 
In the years that passed 
In the age of numbers 
The passing age of numbers 

The light I cherished has burned my eyes 
And so I envied the blind 
For they were not 
Witness to my downfall 
(Witness of our downfall)
