Which is a way one could say that I love you for psychological reasons

A        D          E          A        D           E               A           D           E     A        D E
Mumbling failure in jail my extremities flail and I wail though my arms and my legs to the chair are nailed

Under the table, unwilling, unable, the torture's medieval the dream is a fable with feeble wings
