The bumps, bruises, and broken bones

The blood that pours from open wounds

The stitches needed to mend the cuts

All of this can become too much

The death-defying leaps of faith

The frightening heights at which you face

You still decide to risk your life

Just because it all feels right

Some people do it day and night

Just because it's a way of life

To have the thrill without a pill

Skateboarding is my way of life
