Was it a big deal
They wern't very deep
They were only scratches
The blood would barely seep
I did very little
For the pain I did reap
I know I have fallen
And I lay in a heap
I want to climb up
But the path is so steep
I know that my pain
Doesn't come cheap
It hurts others
Causing them to weep
Whether I like it or not
The scars I will keep
But pain gives me joy
And it helps me sleep
I'm sorry I can't quit
But it's too big of a leap
