letra de something - azedia

something’s wrong but i don’t know what
wondering how, with all the things i’ve got
life is good, but the pain don’t stop
cos i’m holding on, so i give it up

cheer up, put a smile on your face
wake up, take me out of this place
rise up, we are the human race
cheer up, put a smile on your face

speech from talk “we are all basically nothing” by alan watts:

so if you really go the whole way and see how you feel at the prospect of vanishing forever. of all your efforts, and all your achievements, and all your attainments turning into dust and nothingness. what is the feeling? what happens to you?
it’s a curious thing, that in the world’s poetry, this is a very common theme. “the earthy hope men set their hearts upon turns ashes – or it prospers; and anon; like snow upon the desert’s dusty face lighting a little hour or two – is gone

so in this way, by seeing that nothingness is the fundamental reality, and you see it’s your reality, then how can anything contaminate you? all the idea of your being scared and put out and worried and so on, is just nothing, it’s a dream. because you’re really nothing. so cheer up!

all the sun and the stars and the mountains, and rivers, and the good men and bad men, and the animals, and the insects; the whole bit. all are contained in void. so out of this void comes everything and you are it. what else could you be?
but if somebody is going to argue that the basic reality is nothingness, where does all this come from? obviously from nothingness
