"Fall Seven Times, Stand Up Eight"


Chorus:
We try so hard to keep you close, we don't want you going far from where you belong
We love you so much that we took our time to sit down and look back, you're the reason for this song
You might take this as another excuse to come home, saying you've figured everything out
Or you could take it to the heart, finally breathing actually changing and seeing, cause you've found what it's all about
We could finally start over and act like the person you are now never existed
This world is pretty fair, for it gives you a chance to become what you were meant to be, so see it's not twisted

You have only limited amounts of time to find
And to get by, holding on to what's left behind
But you fall, blinded on a winding path, trapped in a maze
Someday you'll look back to realize you were caught in a little daze
You're just waiting for another chance to take the last pill, running away from reality
Seems that once you clean up, you repeat your mess again, going on like infinity
You pop pills 'til your eyes are sizing like pennies, and to you, they help you make it through the day
The truth is, they're tearing you apart taking your life away by the day, and this makes it harder when it comes to say

Repeat Chorus

I wrote this last year to my brother because I wanted him to be the brother I loved and knew. He cried and told me I will be better.
