In the barrows you sleep Among us you walk The sun and the rain are your gifts As the thunderstorm are your curse We dwell in your existens We're the truth For the wise pious man For the virtuous all attained We live by your command As we die by your hand There's no need to believe For we know As the ground where we walk The soil we plov And the crops we grow Like things we can see Like things we can feel You are real We know of you As we know the sun will rise We know of you As we know winter will come We know of As we know our self We're the truth

How can we as a simple human being be worthy of what will wait for us in our afterlife? What must be done to achive this afterlife and how should we live our lifes to secure ourself a place? Meaningless of suffering, the meaningless of so many aspects of our daily existence will forever be a curse laid on mankind To test us and to drive us away from what is holy into the deep dark depths of what will become an endless oblivion Judge of the world put existence upon his scale Judge of the world finds it wanting We must be sustained in this suffering A hope no fulfilment can satisfy A rolling rock forever raised up again A hope reaching out beyond this world The true world must exist beyond, it has to Not in this shadow existents, this world of pain There must be a world for liberated souls out there For the virtue and the righteous The true world will come, the future will bring it The end of history and the end of our suffering A new era will come on earth, an era without pain and suffering For the virtue and the righteous In order to survive we must shad the vail of illusions In order to survive we must realise all is one In order to survive we must see we live in a manifestation We are a part of you, we are apart from you Judge of the world put existence upon his scale Judge of the world finds it wanting We must be sustained in this suffering A hope no fulfilment can satisfy A rolling rock forever raised up again A hope reaching out beyond this world Who are we? Why are we here? What are we here for? Who are we? What is the nature of life? What is the purpose of life? What is the value of life? Why man at all?

Mist blurs my eyes Truth spoken through lye’s Reaching out, but cannot grab This mirage Dim it stands, before my eyes So close to me The same old sun Shining through the mist Just beyond my fingertips Heaven lies surrounded by fog Just beyond my fingertips Afterlife waits for me Is it just my idea? An object of my illusion Is it just a made idea? But it seems to stand so clear If only I could stretch some more I am so close If only the fog would blow away If only the night would turn into day How can I believe? Why should I believe? The same old sun Shining through the mist Father you have forsaken me Father, now I roam alone My goal remains unattained For ever more My goal becomes northerly And pale The same old sun Drowning in mist

Gray of dawn, first yarning of reason Unattained, unknown No redemption, no calling Life is at an end where the kingdom of god begin No comfort, it cannot save The saint in whom god takes pleasure Is the ideal castrate Life is at an end where the kingdom of god begin
5.
Destroy what I know Abolish it all No curse no more Abolish it all All free - spirits run riot In broad daylight the idea has grown useless We witness the return of reason Nothing to believe, destroy it all Change is inevitable, it has long been born Only here only now, nothing here nothing now Only here only now, nothing here nothing now Not somewhere, not at any time Change is inevitable, it has long been born Destroy what I know Abolish it all No curse no more Abolish it all
6.
All has been abolished Why men at all bares no answer In the moment of the shortest shadow We see the end of the longest error What is left without this error? What is left in the shortest shadow? Life is nothing But a lonesome walk back to the void Thus is the price for knowledge All has been abolished We must build on our own We must build on our own Incipit Zarathustra
