Abstinence

 

Once upon a time, My friends were hanging with me,

Playing the game of modern crime, but never literally,

I was a blonde holding a rifle as I shot some ones and zeroes,

All of us killing, fulfilling playing rugged urban heroes,

 

Meanwhile, a man in blue wakes up to read a list to do,

He's got a gun and got a crew, but with the crime, he had no clue,

To him, the sky is always blue, living a life missin' of treason,

His pay at work is decent, and his life is never breezin'

 

Back to us, who were chillin' and were killin' with no reason,

Buying better weapons so our blows would grow, increasin',

And even though we weren't really living lives in the game,

We took to Wrath, all the while indulging sex and the fame,

 

Now, the truth is, scientifically, we're not gonna kill,

We're never gonna try to use the game to better out skill,

We had no real interest in murder or the filling of graves,

We simply used the ones and zeroes as a way to behave,

 

Saving people is an option, helping out's a better cause,

And besides, it's better just to animate the human loss,

Way back when, the world was more or less a literal mess,

Where all the people who saved princesses held tight to her dress,

 

It's the best case scenario to fill up our need,

By letting NPC's get "hit" instead of relatives bleed,

So when we all sat around and held these social events,

There's no telling just how many massacres this prevents.
