Get Back Up

Trapped in a world of pain Shackles of emotion keeps IT tamed IT wants so badly to be free But the people cannot let that be IT stares into your heart Makes you quiver in fear IT dreams of victory, but no-one can see IT ITs journey is coming to an end IT wants to be free IT sees the light and trembles in defeat The voices keeps IT strong But ITs been week all along On a journey like a roller coaster IT is not strapped in On the path to disaster There's chuckles and laughter But how can that be IT sees a way to be free IT starts to fade away Everything is turning dark-n-gray IT is done playing the game IT never wanted to play IT is giving up the fight This seems right Because no-one will understand The pain behind the frown IT sleeps peacefully now IT is remorseful for letting you down IT thinks and wonders "Could IT have turned life around?" But too late IT is eight feet ... underground For those who fall the first time needs to remember to get back up and try again
