A Simple Wish For Pain
I've seen a saint suffer no less
than a crucifixion
When the strongest man in the world
was bruised by a kiss
From the lips of the only woman
to blossom without life
But when it came time to accept pain
you wouldn't believe
A father of four begging for death
So what hurts worse than pain?
