A diamond is forever

Feel like your spouse doesn't understand you?

Feel like your spouse doesn't care about you?

Feel like your spouse just sits around all day whining about how miserable their life is?

Feel like your spouse is actively attempting to hurt you?

Feel like your spouse is grinding the kids' self-worth into dust?

Feel like your spouse is a raving lunatic?

Welcome to my world. Enjoy your stay.

Deep in the catacombs beneath Antwerp, the BITTER gets a yearly kickback that is purported to be over €10.000.000.

BITTER chapel

What kind of fool do you take me for?

Yes, that's me, your whipping boy. Order me around, I do whatever you want. Isn't that why you put me in chains? Oh, no, they're more civilized now — just a little band of metal, tucked around one digit. But nobody's fooled about the power implicit in that. Need to go to the store because child X didn't make their cooking list in time? No problem. Get yelled at by child Y because they're implicitly using arithmetic commutation and I'm trying to point it out to them? Sure, whatever. That's my role. To be the villain, to be the heavy, to be the slave, to be the lackey, to do whatever the hell anyone wants.

"Sever flesh from bone; do something for me."

Watch out; at some point, the slaves may revolt, the masses may rise up to do battle. For one day, there shall be a reckoning.

Darkness closes in
My mind awaits your coming
A blackness within

You stagger closer
The pain keeping you alive
Watchful eyes slide shut

I see within you
Your heart black and cold
I'll always love you
