Failure
Have you ever died, still on your feet?
Did you lay your heart open?
Did it break at their feet?
Did they trample it down?
Did the hurt make you weak?
And how many days will you continue to weep?
Know your worth, and lift up your chin, look forward,
that's where you're going. Not where you've been.
Every step and every day, you, are further away.
From the pain.
But your mind won't let you rest, you see it again you feel the regret.
It dims our whole life, what life we have left.
It steals our dreams.
That's why we keep running... and if you keep looking forward... there will be another adventure worth living.
