Entreaty

Break these chains, by which I am bound, darkness has blinded me
Oh merciful melancholy, soften my heart and let me bleed
Unbalance me to my knees so that I can begin whispering
And put an end to suffering in a world of unpleasant misery
So that I may partake in the riches of happiness for eternity.
