Pain


It presses down upon you

Like a force of water you cannot fight

No one can save you, no one can help you

It surrounds you

Like a wild forrest fire you cannot fight

No one can save you, no one can help you

It crushes you

Like an avalanche of snow or mud

No one can save you, no one can help you

It always wins

Pain
