Ahriman, lord of midnight
pours darkness on the earth
From his throne on the black sun
amidst the radiant cold
he sends out messages saying,
My advice is despair
you're on your own
nobody loves you.
His worshippers preach
the uselessness of everything.
So down with optimism and
long live death!
But don't be fooled
by this oxymoron
the sun's still shining
and look, it isn't black!
