The firmness in your stance is wavering Breathe You’ve faced this monster before Last time it won You rolled over, bared your belly let it shred you The wounds still throb But you are back Hands are shaking Frustrated tears are threatening to spill Straighten your spine Breathe Grip your weapon Don’t lower your eyes. Make your pain your armour Let it energize you The last battle was lost But the war rages on
