Only a foolish man
Would seek to pave his own path
Ignorance is bliss, and life transparent
When it is all figured out for you
When it is all figured out
The harbingers of ignorance
Renounce the relativity of paradigmatic structures
The shepherds of mindless followers
Define morality by allusion to divine authority
Only a foolish man
Would seek to pave his own path
A shiny castle is painted for those
Who embrace preconceived fates
While a fiery pit is promised to those
Who clinch to extemporaneous futures
A shiny castle is painted
While a fiery pit is promised
Promised
A fiery pit is promised
Only a foolish man
Would seek to pave his own path
This fatuous tenure must end
We must transcend this wretched era
This fatuous tenure must end
We must transcend this wretched era
Only a foolish man
Would seek to pave his own path
The curious mind is easily perplexed
(Perplexed)
And left to wonder endlessly
(Endlessly)
But in the most infinite and unsettling states of contractions
We can find
We can find beauty
I would rather die a swine with knowledge
(Swine with knowledge)
Than live eternally as a mindless man
(Mindless man)
The shepherds of mindless followers
Define morality by allusion to divine authority
This fatuous tenure must end
We must transcend this wretched era
This fatuous tenure must end
We must transcend this wretched era
