Like flies

One

The first one falls

Two, three

They follow the first

Four, five

They're falling like flies

Six more, seven more

Are they weak, or are they selfish?

Eight more come tumbling down

Why won't they stay?

Nine more fall

Everyone's leaving, but here I am

I'll stay, and endure the torture

The reward is just too much to lose

The reward is victory

Adrenaline coursing through your veins

Cheers and laughter

All the hard work pays off in the end

Ten more leave...

Don't they know how much they're gonna miss?

Eleven more vanish

Don't they know how much I'll miss them..?
