I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel.
I ought to be thy Adam; but I am rather the fallen angel. Beware; for I am fearless, and therefore powerful. It's alive! I ought to be thy Adam. The world was to me a secret which I desired to divine. ' The world was to me a secret which I desired to divine.' ' Nothing is so painful to the human mind as a great and sudden change.' ' I am alone and miserable; man will not associate with me.' ' I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel.' ' Beware; for I am fearless, and therefore powerful.' “ Beware; for I am fearless, and therefore powerful.” “ I am alone and miserable; man will not associate with me.” “ I ought to be thy Adam; but I am rather the fallen angel.” I am alone and miserable. Nothing is so painful to the human mind as a great and sudden change. What can stop the determined heart and resolved will of man? You are my creator, but I am your master; obey! |
