You have shown me the sky, but what good is the sky
To a creature who'll never do better than crawl?
Out of all of the bastards who've badgered and battered me,
You are the cruelest of all!

Can't you see what your gentle insanities do to me?
Rob me of anger, and give me despair -
Blows and abuse I can take and give back again
Tenderness I cannot bear!
