If not for glory, then for the neccessity
If not for appreciation, then to escape scorn
If not for happiness, then for a peace of mind
Cos that's what life's about, ain't it?
Do what you can to stay afloat. The rewards may be petty for the hell you go through, but the hell you've gone through will feel like a visit to the fucking funfair compared to what'll happen once you loosen your hold.
Just hold on. Grasp on to anything with every strength you've got, and if you fail, then too fucking bad, get a number and get in line.
So riddle me this, batman: what's the point in all of this?
There is none.
