  Spoken intro (not 100% accurate): "I love the way you hurt me, My tears your
  wine. Your thorns would draw my plan for a cruise in vain. Like talons in the
  pale moon shine above us. My gained pleasure in pain is slowly vanished as
  you sink deeper and deeper into to the void of your venomous love."
