about

The beginning of the story. A man finds himself miserable and discovers his insignificance and that he has no one to blame but himself.

lyrics

In this dark and grimy cave,
I've lived for seven years,
Oh God, oh God,
How did I end up here?

In man's Melancholy Ocean,
I gaze into my reflection,
I cry this sad song,
But one salty tear.

I approach a castle of misery,
I behold its constructors,
Surprise, surprise, surprise,
They're me, myself, and I.
