The Old Pain

On the board and into the light
a creature presses me to go
for the same thing and the old grief
catching my tears with laughter
and on the mat rots a young body
where fate directs its puppets
for the same thing and the old grief
I know at last: nothing's for free
On the board and into nothingness
everybody knows what's at the end
the same thing and the old grief
driving me slowly into insanity
and on the mat rages the same war
still scorching my heart
the same thing and the old grief
I know at last
I want to fuck!
[never again] - the old grief
[never again]
[never again] - the old grief
On the board and into the light
a creature presses me to go
for the same thing and the old grief
cathing my tears with laughter
and on the mat rots a young body
where fate directs its puppets
for the same thing and the old grief
I know at last
[never again] - the old grief
