A man traveling across a field encountered a tiger. He fled, the tiger after him. Coming to a precipice, he caught hold of the root of a wild vine and swung himself down over the edge. The tiger sniffed at him from above. Trembling, the man looked down to where, far below, another tiger was waiting to eat him. Only the vine sustained him.
Two mice, one white and one black, little by little started to gnaw away the vine. The man saw a luscious strawberry near him. Grasping the vine with one hand, he plucked the strawberry with the other. How sweet it tasted!

We feel sick, broken down, drug ourselves, underground
No one cares, we curse you all,
we curse ourselves, in hopes we fall
Friday night and I made the best of it
I passed out before I could invest in it
Understand it won’t make sense
But I don’t value innocence
I don’t hope for anything
Enemy? Fuck the pride
Come on over to our side
We’re the same, just afraid
What’s the difference when we’re all dying?
Oh my God, we’re so set
In our own ways that we forget
We are insignificant
We’ll be gone, soon be forgotten -
Je leverai les yeux a toi
J’ai change cent foi de nom
Je leverai les yeux a toi
Je n’ai pas d’espoir -
How sad, this is what your life has been reduced to: a single room apartment containing no more than a mattress. The strings have been removed from the blinds and all the outlets have been painted over. The television screen is streaked with blood smeared from your knuckles as you were trying to punch it out but you underestimated its strength, or maybe you just weren’t trying hard enough. Startled by a knock at the door you rise for the first time in two days to answer, but you can only greet the visitor with one short statement.
Hello my first name is distance and I really don’t care if I never wake up again.
Hello my name is distance and I really don’t care if I never wake up again.
Hello I really don’t care if I never wake up again.
I really don’t care if I never wake up again.

mine’s been a vivid story, dimly remembered
and by the hundredth time it’s told, halfway true
of bad behavior well engendered
what good is each good thing we think we do?
find a friend and stay close and with a melting heart
tell them whatever you’re most ashamed of
our parents have made so many mistakes,
but may we forgive them and forgive ourselves -
You may push me around
But you cannot win
You may throw me down
But I’ll rise again
The more you say
The more I defy you
So get out of my face
You cannot stop us
You cannot bring us down
Never give up
We go on and on
You’ll never break us
Never bring us down
We are alive
