See The Jacksons - Torture Lyrics below: It was on a street so evil So bad that even hell disowned it Every single step was trouble For the fool who stumbled on it Eyes within the dark were watching I felt the sudden chill of danger Something told me keep on walking Told me I should not have come there Baby, 'cause you cut me like a knife Without your love in my life Alone I walk in the night 'Cause I just can't stop this feelin' It's torture It's torture It's torture She was up a stair to nowhere A room forever I'll remember She stared as though I should have known her Tell me what's your pain or pleasure Every little thing you find here Is simply for the thrill you're after Loneliness or hearts of fire I am here to serve all masters She said reality is a knife When there's no love in your life And merciful is the night When you just can't stop this feeling It's torture It's torture It's torture And I still can't find the meaning, no no no Of the face I keep on seeing Was she real or am I dreaming Did the sound of your name Turn a wheel, start the flame in me Baby, 'cause you cut me like a knife Without your love in my life Alone I walk in the night And I just can't stop this feelin' It's torture It's torture It's torture She said reality is a knife When there's no love in your life And merciful is the night When you just can't stop this feeling It's torture It's torture It's torture
This is a clip of the grand opening of the recently discovered lost Fresno civilization in Woodward Park. As you can see a lot of people turned out for the opening and were not disappointed. The ruins took over a year to be dug out. Reportedly a dog walker stumbled upon them in the northeast corner of the park. They were completely unknown until now. This is an amazing discover and seems to have connections to similar structures found in other parts of the world. Fresno has a lot of history to be proud of. Allegedly, the Fresno Chamber of Commerce is very excited and is planning mass advertising of the ruins to draw new visitors to the city. Everyone was shocked upon learning of the discover in late 2016. It has been kept a secret from the public until now to prevent vandalism of the site. However, now that the site is open, security is at a high level. A visitor at the Fresno Underground Gardens reportedly saw a staff member sigh upon hearing the news, throw up their hands, and run into a bathroom crying. Competition will surely be intense in the Fresno area among all the ruins sites vying for visitors. Dogs are not allowed on the site and reportedly the Fresno Woodward Park dog park is under consideration for a relocation due to the smell, which could detract from new visitation to the ruins. A couple of dogs owners have already been cited for allowing their dogs to run up to the ruins and urinate on the structure.
