Paradise Lost

Nihil Hic Videre


I'm not the man I want to be

I'm not the man

I want to be

I want

To be

I don't want to be the man I want to be

I don't want to be

I mean

I don't want to want to be

The man I want to be

Because

The man I want to want to be

Is already gone

And the man left behind

Is only him

 

Married

 

To a woman

 

He used to know

 

He used

To know

You know

Used

To know

Her

He

Wanted to know

Her

He did

Use

To know her

Used

And she is now worn out with use

She is now

Worn out

With use

O

What's the use?

Is this a ruse?

Ecce Mulier

Forsooth

She is gone, too
