Take This Moment . . .

 

Hey you down there on the ground,
Don’t you think that it’s time 
You should fly?
And do you consider the cost
Of the pride that you wear 
Like a smile?

Take this moment
You’ve got here.
You may not 
Get another try.
Sometimes only
One chance comes around
At a time.

It’s two. That’s the number required
For the dance that we do
To get by.
A few drag you into the mire,
But they’re strong
Many wiles they devise.

Doomed if you don’t learn.
Farce is what you earn from the tragedy.
What have we to gain
By being stubborn?

You’re blue and you don’t know why.
Pieces of you are lost in each fight.
