The Philosopher

Do you see what I see?

Do you feel what I feel?

As if you've reached some higher plane of existence

Through your misery

The truth you crave

Preaching lies and deceit

As if morality

Is a cloistered dagger

Biding to strike you

Enlightenment you seek

Through a path that you tread

Yet you bemoan

The life that you chose

The meaning of life you discovered

Still lies shrouded in mystery

As if we are not worthy

Of the truth that you find so profound

You say you are not feeble

Yet your weakness is revealed

Contradiction, fogs your mind

Obscured reality, you shall find

On superstition you feed

As your apocryphal wisdom thrives

A cult is born, consuming your lies

Spiritual your tongue, yet it reeks of ignorance

Forlorn your attempt,

To become a myth in the world of man

As if there's some deeper meaning

To a fragile life

The Philosopher

You know so much

And yet you know

Nothing at all
