the nihilist

this is just mucking about, we're working on recording better stuff, hell we're not even set on a name yet . . . here be the lyrics . . .


- the nihilist -

to the swine it all may be swinish, but i, i just felt empty
and empowered by the noblest of angst, i wondered how this could possibly be
cuz theres a mountain of evidence screaming that the world can be whole without any meaning
but i cant decide if this, somehow insults me
i was a nihilist, i was an island in the south seas x3?

i got bored one thursday, so i went bowling
i tried to care about the game that i played, i tried to care about the ball i was rolling
i tried to care about the smoke in the air or the smiles of the cougars who were slowly encircling
i tried to care about ten little pins that waited for me at the end of the alley
i was a nihilist, i was an island in the south seas x3?


and the shit on the grocery shelves never looked so unappealing
as they did on august 23rd, one hot afternoon when it began raining
you see the people they all huddled like ants, and scuttled for safety under the awning
and i alone was drenched by the rain that abruptly began falling
i was a nihilist, i was an island in the south seas x3?
