dragonfly. The rest of this sort of popped into my head because niqaeli used the phrase "at the end of the day."
At the end of the day you're another day sorer,
And that's all you can say for the life of the old
You get tired, you get cold,
And there's no-one around that will listen
And all you can think of to do is to do as you're told.
You don't know what you're missin'.
At the end of the day you're another day surer
That you don't need a reason to go on at all.
You keep running at the wall,
And ignoring the pain in your shoulders
And ignoring how often you stumble, how often you fall.
And you're climbing your boulders.
At the end of the day there's another night falling,
And the sun in the evening is waiting to set.
Like a rock ground into sand, like a river eroding a lake,
There are blisters on your hands, and your finger- and toenails break,
And your body feels beaten away
At the end of the day.
