Substantial Guilt vs. The Irony of Enjoying Lyrics by Ion Dissonance

...Breathing Is Irrelevant

2003

[Intro]
And I
And I lay numb
Waiting for something worse to happen
Sweet innocence
It happened so suddenly
[Verse 1]
She crossed my path
On the way to nothingness
I knew that I was encountering
An angel of purity
And in the process, I've quickly understood
That I don't deserve her
None of us humans do
[Breakdown]
Beholding such a fatality leaves you empty with bitter grief
Life seems to be tarnished and sour, raped in its very essence
But sorrow is rapidly replaced by frustration, envy, and despair
[Verse 2]
Dressed in white
A child so alone
So fragile and beautiful has dawn
To hold her close was exhilarating in a most vicious way
I felt so weak
Yet empowered somehow
[Interlude]
One thing leading to another, I knew then
That if I could not experience nor possess purity
I would at least try to take it and choke the life out of it
And I did
Oh, why
I don't know but I did
[Verse 3]
Violently, I've pummelled her face with my bare fists until she became awfully deformed
Bleeding and dying, all twisted up in terror
[Verse 4]
I have forcefully replaced all the teeth in her mouth
By razorsharp shards of glass
Slowly inserting every piece
Of glass in the little one's gum
[Bridge]
Why was I laughing?
Why was I laughing?
Why was I laughing?
Why... was I laughing?
Why?
In complete disharmony with her screams
I guess that is my art
To inflict upon purity the only thing I can give
And, unfortunately, it's not love
I should've felt guilty, I know
[Outro]
But it simply didn't occur
