Odd Sense Of Humour
It isn't funny, running round. Laughing, scorning, standing proud. It isn't funny, dodging blame. Wanted posters, street-wide fame. It isn't funny, and you know. Yet you do it even so.

Another day. To waste away. Another hour past. Another second. Another minute. But it won't be the last. Another year. Has been and gone. Another season lost to time. I heave a sigh.
