Ah how unhappy ever
Wants me the ungrateful Dorilla
Ah, more and more ruthless,
She forces me to shed tears!
For me, no,
There is no rest
For me, no,
There is no hope
And the cruel martyrdom
And my sorrows
Only death
Can comfort

The afterthought of all male martyrdom.

Behind every good man's a messiah story.
I, for one, am as guilty as they come;
After all, I’m my mama’s son.
