"My life is on the line here!" Original Song: The Match-Selling Scalper / Nazo j
【Lyrics】
Haaaah... They won't sell, they won't sell, these matches won't sell Today's profit, how much? At this rate, it's a starvation Bad End Thanks to the author, the higher-ups, and my parents
In this era, she's perfectly ordinary A poor girl selling her wares Squeezing her brain for a way to survive
Everyone wants it so bad, they're dying for it I'll hog it all, how much? If I sell it off for more than I bought it for I can make a killing on the difference, right?
Ethics? Morals? I can't afford to care Tomorrow's meal is important Heading out for market research
Check the demand, check the supply Changing faces, changing shops, a scalper; lighters over matches
It's not stealing, it's not begging This is a legitimate business!
Step right up, come one, come all Right here is the latest trending item Only the honest will look like fools From now on, every day
Not enough, not enough, the cash isn't enough Singing again today, how much? I'm grateful for the way the world works Countermeasures are such a pain
Once you know the taste of honey, you can't stop at all Greedy withdrawal symptoms Shouldering extra karma
Check the demand, check the supply Face exposed, stock depleted, a scalper; powder over lighters
I didn't do anything wrong! I was just chosen by the devil!
Step right up, come one, come all Like pests swarming to the light Let's keep warm by any means necessary ...From now on, every day?
My soul is already sold out But there's still more to lose, isn't there?
Do you have any stock of fights left? Give me everything
""My life is on the line here!"" Like I care, get yourself arrested
Ah, I can never go back, can I? To a decent world To a world where efforts are rewarded

"There are things you should and shouldn't do?" "Shut up!! So you're saying it'd be better if I died in a ditch while seeing happy hallucinations from the match flames?!"
Five days before New Year's Eve of a certain year. A boy is selling matches on the street.
...They aren't selling... He lights a match.
So warm...
The boy thought to himself.
───If I keep this up, I'm going to die in a ditch.
