Don'T Stumble; Don'T Falter; Don'T Fall

Don't stumble; don't falter; don't fumble; Don't fall Hey you; Why do you even try? When it all seems pointless; Is it even worth it to try, I mean all of it. Don't stumble; don't falter; don't fumble; Don't fall. The rate at which you are willing to believe; Oh how naive! Are you even growing? Pain after pain on top of other pain; Will you even learn? Disappointments after disappointments on top of other disappointments; Will you ever reflect? Tears after tears on top of other tears; Aren't the tears drying up? Grief after grief on top of other grief; Haven't you had enough? Betrayal after betrayal on top of other betrayals; Where is your breaking point? Don't stumble; don't falter; don't fumble; Don't fall. Honey, whatever am I going to do with you? Why do they even come? Why do they shake you so? Are you so foolish? Honey, look yourself in the mirror The one you can never forgive is yourself; You are the one who believes; The one who tries; The one who waits; The one who forgives; The one who is so ignorant, Till it all comes crumbling; Don't stumble; don't falter; don't fumble; Don't fall. Honey how do you even live? Seems like you are always given the shorter end of the stick; Don't stumble; don't falter; don't fumble. Don't fall. Waking up to tomorrow; You repeat this like an incarnation; You tell yourself to be strong; To brace yourself for the day; Don't stumble; don't falter ; don't fumble; Don't fall. Is there any end to all this; Yet you still smile; You still laugh; The temperance of a fool!
