The Curse of Modern Man

Sisyphus (1548–49) by Titian

So tired am I,

That I forgot my coffee.

So fat am I,

That I no longer exercise.

I have paid top dollar

To sell me soul at work.

I have taken every warm drug

To find the stone, cold truth.

It takes a lot of lies

For people to see the real me.

It takes a lot of war

For me to make peace.

In my search for a distraction,

I became distracted.

In my love of lust,

I lost all love.

I would kill Jesus

To prove I’m a good person.

I would kill myself

To live forever.
