¡The only thing real and natural is decadence! ...it's my MeMe #284

¡Watch out! because the only thing that is truly secure, real and natural in this universe is decay, decline and decadence. Otherwise, "evolution" as we know it wouldn't exist.

A Short History of Decay

The perspective that defines decadence as the only real and natural thing resonates with currents of nihilism and philosophical pessimism, where deterioration is seen as a natural and inevitable process of life and history. This view suggests that ruin is the logical conclusion of time.

  • Nietzsche and the Descending Life: Nietzsche often reinterpreted decadence not only as a moral fall, but as a "descending life line," a decline in the will to power, which he considered a real manifestation in culture and biology.

  • Decadence as a Natural Process: Decadence can be understood as the deterioration or material/symbolic wear and tear that occurs with the simple passage of time, applied to both human memory and social structures.

  • Cioran's Perspective: E.M. Cioran, in his reflections, often delves into personal defeat and eternal transformation, suggesting an acceptance of decadence as part of the universe's natural course.

  • Inevitable Nature: This view posits that decline is the process of "going downhill," the decay or deterioration of the original strength and conditions of anything or anyone in the natural course of time.

This perspective often challenges narratives of progress, positioning decline as the true constant. And this will continue to be the case if you continue to refuse to «click» on everything you should click on. So don't resist and «click» on everything clickable you find in this post.

Johnny's in America, no tax at the wheel
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
No-one needs anyone, they don't even just pretend
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Johnny's in America

I'm afraid of Americans
I'm afraid of the world
I'm afraid I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
I'm afraid of Americans
I'm afraid of the world
I'm afraid I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
I'm afraid of Americans

Johnny's in America
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Johnny wants a brain, Johnny wants to suck on a coke
Johnny wants a woman, Johnny wants to think of a joke
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Johnny's in America (ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)

I'm afraid of Americans
I'm afraid of the world
I'm afraid I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
I'm afraid of Americans
I'm afraid of the world
I'm afraid I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
I'm afraid of Americans

Johnny's in America, Johnny looks up at the stars
Johnny combs his hair and Johnny wants pussy in cars
Johnny's in America (ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Johnny's in America (ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)

I'm afraid of Americans
I'm afraid of the world
I'm afraid I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
I'm afraid of Americans
I'm afraid of the world
I'm afraid I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
I'm afraid of Americans

God is an American
God is an American
(Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)

I'm afraid of the world
I'm afraid I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
I'm afraid of Americans
I'm afraid of the world
I'm afraid I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't

Yeah I'm afraid of Americans
I'm afraid of the world
I'm afraid I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
I'm afraid of Americans

Johnny's an American
Johnny's an American
Johnny's an American
Johnny's an American
Johnny's an American

Approached me softly,
Started the questions,
Do you live by yourself,
Or under mindless conditions?
Do you (I) live in a mirror?
Cuddled up to my inner sinner?
Do you (I) break down at night,
Because there's nobody with me?
I said that's tricky
You're different,
You don't belong here with me,
You've changed yourself,
Was it all for the glory?
Have you looked in a mirror,
Caught a glance at your inner sinner?
Do you break down at night,
Because there's nobody with ya?
I said, I said,
Why do people change?
Why do people change?
Why do people change?
It's a phobia.
Why do people change?
Why do people change?
Why do people change?
It's a phobia.
Why do people change?
Why do people change?
Why do people change?
It's a phobia.
Why do people change?
Why do people change?
Why do people change?
It's a phobia!
Why do people change?
Oh why do people change?
Why do people change?
I said why do people change?
Why do people change?
Oh why do people change?
Why do people change?
I said why do people change?
Why do people change?
Oh why do people change?
Why do people change?
I said why do people change?
Why do people change?
Oh why do people change?

Why do people change?
It's a phobia!

Sunlight coming through the haze
No gaps in the blind, to let it inside
The bed is unmade, some music still plays
TV, yeah, it's always on
A flicker on the screen, a movie actress screams
I'm basking in the shit, flowing out of it
I'm stoned in the mall again
Terminally bored, shuffling round the stores
And shoplifting is getting so last year's thing
Xbox is a god to me
A finger on the switch, my mother is a bitch
My father gave up ever trying to talk to me

Don't try engaging me
The vaguest of shrugs, the prescription drugs
You'll never find, a person inside
My face is mogadon
Curiosity, has given up on me
I'm tuning out desires, the pills are on the rise

How can I be sure I'm here?
The pills that I've been taking confuse me
I need to know that someone sees that
There's nothing left, I simply am not here

I'm through with pornography
The action is tame, the acting is lame
Explicitly dull, arousal annulled
Your mouth should be boarded up
Talking all day, with nothing to say
Your shallow proclamations, all misinformation
My friend says he wants to die
He's in a band, they sound like Pearl Jam
The clothes are all black, the music is crap
In school I don't concentrate
And sex is kinda fun but just another one
Of all the empty ways of using up a day

How can I be sure I'm here?
The pills that I've been taking confuse me
I need to know that someone sees that
There's nothing left, I simply am not here

Bipolar disorder
Can't deal with the boredom
Bipolar disorder
Can't deal with the boredom

You don't try to be liked
You don't mind
You feel no sun
You steal a gun
To kill time
You're somewhere, you're nowhere
You don't care
You catch the breeze
You still the leaves
So now where?
