How Will It End

How Will It End? When put to the test time after time, Our backs to the wall I've got yours you've got mine We've hugged and we've cried, yes, we've even lied For a mental health day so our nerves could subside We're nurses, we're proud, we give all that we've got Our residents love us, they tell us a lot They challenge us daily, they push the call button We ask them what's wrong sometimes they say, "Nuttin'!" We rack our brains and pull out our hair To keep them from falling out of their chair And heaven forbid we should turn our backs The Incident Report will show all of the facts The years have flown by so quickly my friends A question remains: How will it end? When I'm old and fragile and can't walk anymore Will there be someone to help me like I've helped before? Will they show me respect or toss me on a shelf When it becomes obvious I can't do for myself? What goes around comes around We know Karma is true My conscience is clear... How about you?
