I had great wisdom when this all began...but they're all dead.
I believed in mercy for a little while...but found that he who hesitates is gutted.
I believed in justice...but only the good die young.
I had faith when this all began...but even God likes a good laugh.
I was diligent...but so many have slipped through my fingers.
I was temperate...but now there's not enough alcohol in the entire world.
I had courage when all this began...but now I'm afraid I'll be the last man standing.
And hope? It's all I have left.
