I just started my life of crime. I've decided to go bankrupt since everyone seems entitled. I'm not paying for you anymore. Multiple jobs, watching so many others suffer while you're out living it up and then random people buzz into my life because I dye my hair blonde and am self-contained. Yeah, I get a check, but I'll be attacked for that in time too. You know, I spent years being good - as I was trapped, and it's time I ditch it. Not only am I purdy but fried again. If I go to prison for a minor crime while I'm still under 25, I get school, and I doubt they'd rape me or I'd care. It's not so bad over here. I guess I'm not the only one with the mark of Cain. Abel, Abel bring to table and make me beg to die-destroy. It's either kill or be killed. Keep fighting guys. There's more Cains out there. They can't put everyone in prison, and they can't kill them all either or they'd have to do something besides pour everything onto us then gaze in wonder at reactions. Eventually, due to numbers, they'll have to understand us and it goes downhill from there. We all want to be good, but we can't all be good. I guess I'm with my bottle and the dollar menu. I'll drink it all.
