Falling up the stairs
The rain tumbling down
How can everything
Be so right yet so wrong at the same time?

I had everything I could ever have wanted
When my world wen black
The darkness only lasted for a minute
In the hospital for months
I realized it could be so much worse
Fighting a battle
No one thought I could win
But I had my family and friends
And thats all I ever needed
The support was there
I knew I would make it
Even when the doctors thought I couldn't

Playing the game
My life was the only thing at risk
Thankful for what I had
What was wrong
I hadn't a clue
No way to know what I was up against
Not sure why
But I knew one thing
I will never give up

When life throws a curve ball
I swing with all my might
And if I strike out
I'll see you again someday
Just always remember
I'll always love you

If your parents never had children, chances are you won't, either.
