'You turn yourself into an everything
Being young means a fighting chance against cancer,
like supple flesh means attention from boys.
It doesn't matter in the end.
A beautiful skin also stinks when it burns,
and besides, I'm not afraid of hell -
it keeps me warm on cold nights.
I'm not afraid of any chain or arrow
binding me forever to a dark winter.
Men are like docks, after all.
You can leave them whenever you like.'
