For father's sake

Sake. Sweet, soothing sake. I soak in it. It stings the slashes in my skin like it stabs at my tongue.

Father, why have you forsaken me?

Y have you forsaken me?

Baba, abba, abides, biding his time

Father, is it finished?

Finished. Finnish. Finland. Happiest place on the planet.

Father planned it. Pierced mine own palms

Own ow wrist

Wine, I will not whine

While I drink the wine of your wrath, I seek salvation, but I do not find it

It is finished
