A story that began at an altar
But ended beyond the pyre
While his heart he did surrender,
For the promise of a wonder
It kept him waiting for ever
Subjecting him to torture
He fell in the nether
Over and over
Wishing for a saviour
But there was his lover
Watching him going under
In the unflickering fire
Her eyes manic with pleasure
He saw her rancor, so bitter
And as she broke into laughter
Then came the reaper, looking for fodder
