Desideratum

"The time will soon come when, if men will not learn that lesson
 Then they will be taught it in blood and fire and anguish."
 To tear down the sun
 If only we could show the damned a great longing
 To tear down the sun
 We're drowning in shit, and no one ever stands
 Until we are a whore of sanity so low
 What could have been?
 Such longing destroyed
 This end of the world
 A fortune so sweet
