Have you ever been injured and be left standing on the sideline?
Have people ever looked at you, with a look saying 'be happy that you don't have to do this exercise'?
Because I have, I have been the girl at the side, the girl who should feel relieved because she didn't have to run suicides, I have been the girl who always wanted but couldn't. If I could go back to all those practices I had, where I wished it would jus be over, I wouldn't complain.
Of course, my body would ache, and oh god how I cursed when my whole body felt sore. But I would take that over not doing it.
I have been the girl who cried because she couldn't participate
I am the girl who cries because I can't run
I am the girl who stands on the sideline, the girl who can't do what she love the most
I am the girl who tries to cheer my teammates on when they're running their arses off, but I can't cheer them on; I'm standing there, wishing I could do that too.
I would work my ass off, if I could
But, I'm the girl at the sideline
And I will probably always be
