Maybe I just don't want to be here!

Is that so bad!

I can't cling to this hill like you do!

I have no claws!

But I have nowhere else to go!

You glare at me like it's all my fault

My fault that I can't climb

That my nails are bent and dirty

And I've been slipping down

And it is

In part

But I just hate this so much

And I don't want to do this anymore!

You bound your rope around me

And now you're angry I want to untie it

Isn't that okay?

Aren't I allowed to fall?

Aren't I allowed to fail?

You didn't need to me to do this!

I don't want to be dragged into this anymore!

I don't want to be dragged up!

I'll rise in my own time

But for now just let me rest.

I climbed the slope for hours

And in one second fell to the bottom again

I need to rest here

I don't know how long it will take

Bones don't heal on your time

They heal on their own

And I have to let them.

I'm rebuilding myself again,

After I already tried

I don't think I'll meet you at the top

You'll find some other slope to climb

But I've had friends here at the bottom

And I really don't mind.

I don't play to stay here forever

But it's not as bad as you think.

I'm not as eager to crawl my way out as you

I'm okay with stopping to rest
