We arrive

I see now, in town, there’s a burning building

A man approaches me

He’s their leader, only legally mine

They expect me to reach up, to save those in need of saving

What do I owe these people?

Why do they get to simply exist, while I must work

for them?

I’ll show them all what I can be

But maybe this time I can prove my worth

It’s a chance, it’s a choice

I could prove myself or prove them right

How sweet it would feel, to give them what they want

How much sweeter to give them what they deserve

They’re screaming, screaming for help

As my conscience walks me toward the building, I reach up

Ready to save the day

Just then, an egg cracks on my leg, hurled from amongst the crowd

I turn to the masses in a rage

Let’s give them what they fucking deserve

I grab those I can, I gnaw at their bones and flesh

I’ve got them now, I will feast until I am done

What’s this?

My stomach has tried to burst

Did they feed me explosive decoys?

We collapse
