I tripped & fell
I shouldn't have fallen you see
I should've decided
I fell and stayed down
usually I wouldn't you see
'stead I'd have gotten up
and dusted off
but down I stayed
then one day I got up
my heart still aches you see
but my been up gives me strength
strength to not look below but beyond
strength to look ahead
not behind
strength to desire
to remain standing
until if ever again I can make a decision
'stead of taking a hard fall
