The Hermit from the forthcoming solo album My Name Is Will by Mark Will subscribe: https://markwillwrite.substack.com/ lyrics: In days of yore there lived a man who shunned all sight of the human form A recluse and a misanthrope, he had as lief been born as a lowly worm Many times he tried to shuffle off this mortal coil and escape such a wretched state But a demon intervened and cryptically explained that he was marked for a different fate So with a heavy heart and a troubled mind, guided by the demon which appeared before He began to seek dark mystery's gate and the skeleton key to perception's door Many chance discoveries of magical import he did make while on the crooked path But necromantic sorcery could not fulfill the void and he felt a fool in the aftermath Whereupon he fled, under the sign of Saturn, to the desert wilds so he could fast and pray An anchorite and a mendicant, he practiced mindfulness in the strictest way Many were the insights which he saw with his third eye and he knew the bliss of a tranquil soul But every instance of nirvana vanished like a dream when the ratio resumed control And finally he awoke to accept that from searching he'd never refrain And though absolute truth and perfect wisdom he'd never attain He'd eternally strive to commune with the self which can never be named And thus he must wander forever, impossibly questing, without praise or blame Neither proud nor ashamed His lantern held high in defiance of time An exiled enigma of virtue and sin Bearing witness to gods and men #MarkWill #TheHermit #MyNameIsWill ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjXX3tG0gbs
