I Am an Empty Well
How do you live with failure?

An Empty Well by Tim StiX
Where do you go
When you've given it all
And there's nothing more left to give
How do you know
If you stumble and fall
Just how to get up and live

Chaos confirmed
Mountain too tall
From unfortunate worm
To no curtain call

Trapped in your mind
Like a cold prison cell
No hope left behind
In a dried up old well

Failure is hard
When you've given your all
So, draw another card
Or let the curtain fall

What do I do
Now life's emptied the well
And I've just nothing more left to give
If only I knew
When I stumbled and fell
There's still time ...
To get up and live!
