I can no longer juggle
I have dropped all my balls
I can’t seem to be able
To make sense of it all
There is no real torture
There is no harsh pain
There is no real freedom
No hope to be gained
The choice not so simple
All hearts they do call
To stand up and fight
To lay down and fall
Defeat is the winner
Defeat is the end
Or to rise up and shine
With help from your friends
To throw out your feelings
Your kindness and love
To see it returned
Gives hope from above
It’s sent to the ones
That make you feel right
Some send it back
Some hold to it tight
But just so it’s flowing
Is important you see
We all take our chances
There is no guarantee
But never is it sent
Without thought or without care
It’s meant to be welcomed
It’s meant to be shared
The true test it is coming
To see where you stand
We get what we give
Not what we demand
So sometimes we step forward
Sometimes we step back
And we are forever seeking
Those things we lack
