Free Will Lyrics

Open your eyes and exalt--Exalt!
in this fragile world, in this knowing flesh, in this very moment.
We have forsaken the delusions of Comprehension as we are born into the certainty of the Sensual.
We are the stone that starts the avalanche.
We are the cough that spreads the plague.
We are the spark that lights the inferno.
Relinquish those wretched controls of knowledge and experience, those conditions which hinder Desire's progress.
Cut away esoteric corruption and seek unfettered fulfillment.
In defiance of the sages.
In defiance of the intelligentsia.
Useless philosophy, theory, and poetry must be heaped upon the cairn.
See them consumed in Action--sweet, reckless Action.
Join our sad tears and dance on the blackened bones of gods.
Beyond the shadow of the citadel, there is no such thing as time, there is no such thing as negation.
There is only this tangible, perceptible world.
There is only this moment, this very moment.

There are at least two bands with the name Thou.

1. Thou is a doom/sludge/drone metal band from Baton Rouge and New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. Their lyrics deal mostly with social decay, death, and general despair. All of their recorded music, after a period of time, is posted for free on their homepage, http://noladiy.org/thou.html.

Despite having only released five full-lengths — "Peasant", "Tyrant", "Summit", "Heathen", and "Magus" — Thou have an extensive and varied discography. The band have released several EPs, including a collection of Black Sabbath covers ("Through the Empires of Eternal Void") and splits with bands such as Kowloon Walled City, Leech, and Hell.

Thou are quite involved in the New Orleans DIY scene, and, as stated above, make all of their music available for free.

2. Another Thou is a Belgian band. Early on, they had an electro sound, but have grown to sound more along the lines of pop rock. It is said that Thou is the most underestimated band in the Belgian music scene because of their already ten year long career and with very little success. They are set to release a bunch of new songs, called "This is Not a Record," available only on the internet (iTunes, eMusic). here
