This crest and ripple, this tipple
with which I drench, like staple
every day; turns my nerves within without
A hidden inside screaming shout
Even paradise became a dirty four-letter word
that unsavoury all throughout was heard
Could God rue that all was lost?
This eternity forgone, and such a cost!
And these arms couldn’t find love in Eden
They ramped it up with a deluge of poison
You were mine before, and then were gone
How what is taken leaves one so forlorn!
Forked tongues abound among those lungs
The vultures sung, the dove was hung
And in this caterwauling, the death knell rung
For, in wicked hands paradise was flung
