You want to keep going,
You want to give it your all,
You want to win,
You don't want to fall.
But there comes a blow,
The sharp end of the knife,
Cutting your determination,
Erasing all your strife.
It is difficult,
With everybody preaching,
Giving examples of their lives,
Asking you to keep on going.
It is not easy,
It is easy to say,
It is damned difficult,
To start again, to replay.
