Perched atop the highest building
In the city, wondering Why?
Why should I care?
Why should I struggle?
Why should I fight?

Why should I care
When every villain
Is just released or escapes
Time after time
To run rampant and spread bloodshed,
Flowing like a crimson river
Cutting through my city?

But that's just it:
This is my city,
And they will pay!

The End
