Torturer

<br>Things I`ve assembled<br>To be torn apart<br>It seems the essence<br>This lava in my heart<br>The same old story<br>Handed by a woman and a snake<br>Jokes about purgatory<br>Seems a long wait<br>One more day with the torturer<br>One more day with the torturer<br>Love is a mask<br>Donned by many things<br>Fighting juggernauts<br>Destroying everything<br>A life of retreat<br>With its outstretched hand<br>Slapped down by me<br>That rule-playing man<br>One more day with the torturer<br>One more day with the torturer<br>One more day with the torturer<br>One more day with the torturer<br>Wrinkles where there were pimples<br>Grey and gone hair in my brown<br>Soon I will be muzzled<br>Soon I will die down<br>Years between me and God`s face<br>As fleeting as dust and smoke<br>Every day be good in this place<br>If only for the hope
