Oskoreien Illusions Perish
abandon the future
abandon the past
learn to accept
that nothing will last
the life that you love
the life that you cherish
vanishes as
your illusions perish
free from desire
you realize the mystery
caught in desire
you see only the manifestations
of ephemeral joys and fleeting devotions
obstructing the true self within
that which is lasting cannot be found
in the whims of civilization
shed your beliefs and dismiss your desires
the only way to transcend
blindly you sacrifice all your control
society's forces have taken their toll
all that remains is a shell of a soul
your negligence renders it no longer whole
abandon the future and forsake the past
learn to accept that nothing will last
the life that you love
the life that you cherish
vanishes as
your illusions perish
