Prolong the Inevitable

satan would have been a good guy, his closet all clutter & cloaks & bowling bags full of severed heads down to the throat. the type of guy you could really talk to. he'd mention or show the better temptation & nobody would know about the new you. satan would have made a good psychiatrist, letting loose your flaws & if you're weak you're suffocating beneath your own claws or you could get a handle on a whiskey bottle & save yourself or at least prolong the inevitable shoulder tap of death for just a couple of hours until everything just seems the same again.
