I Grind 'til I Die

I Grind ‘til I Die

Old age and new heartaches, the plans one resets,

Big dreams and small chances, the nearly won bets,

The hopes and the fears, the sun as it sets,

The loves and the hates, so many regrets.

So many regrets.

The wins with no winners, the battles forgot,

Lost time and wronged lovers, the scars that were bought,

The effort and strain, the striving for nought,

The strength that is gone, the wars that were fought.

The wars that were fought.

Left with no answers, the time slipped on by,

Too old and too tired, too broken to cry,

The anger and pain, so why even try?

The need to keep on, I grind ‘til I die.

I grind ‘til I die.
