Story

It's not about glory. 
It's not about fame.
It's not about the game. 
It's about the story. 

Everyone wants something to blame. 
We don't examine ourselves.
We do what we can to walk off our shame,
then we put someone else's back on our shelves. 

To judge within is always hard. 
Don't ever let down your guard.
Revive a heart that's been badly beaten, 
broken and scarred. 

The very places you have implored 
are the hidden home of your wonderful reward.
