Football Pains

It was right there, right past our grasps The playoffs gone just that fast The last year, it was our final chance We went hard, but it seems we never had a chance Tears leave eyes as we undress Removing our pads to make the burden less The coach comes in and his eyes are red Said he was proud of us, we worked until our hearts bled I just watched, a stoic face and a stoned heart I showed no emotions but i felt the loss I embraced the other seniors in my turn With dry eyes to soothe the burn The juniors watched us, not quite understanding But they felt it, the pain we was withstanding Leaving the locker room, we embraced the ones we loved Eyed blank as they tried to wipe away the blood What's past is past, there's nothing we can do Its just a game, a sport said a few But when you put that much effort and pain in And you lose, its hard.. so hard not to be blue
