Pleasure_Pain
Pleasure_Pain
I always seek for the highest Joy
Always want the utmost Pleasure
Ever crave the most delight
It must be the greatest Treasure
Sometimes I like to feel the Anguish
The feel of the hard cold falling rain
I sometimes long to be afflicted
With the harshness, and the pain
Oh I will have my highest pleasure
Oh I will stand here in the cold hard rain
Oh I will have my greatest leasure
Oh I will have the harshest pain
