Ecce Homo! - The Black League

Blest' are those who cannot see reality in all its ruthless misery

For what doesn’t kill you ought to make you stronger

Yet the more you endure

The pain lasts longer and longer and longer and longer…

All the losses that lie ahead

And all the sufferings which yet raise their head

For those whom the gods love, oh, they will die young

And as if the best… so is the very worst yet to come…

Behold!

Nothing there for you

Another day!

Nothing hereafter

Another morn!

Nothing there for you

This is it!

This is the real thing!

And all that you will ever know is right here, right now, in front of your eyes!

So if you don’t like it… Well now, the choice is free:

Just get out of my sight!

Or try to enjoy your stay

In the meantime, you can be sure there will be always

Someone or something trying to break you

‘Cause reality, it is the worst and best you’ll ever know!

No!

Nothing hereafter

Behold!

Nothing there for you

Another day!

Nothing hereafter

Another morn!

Nothing there…
