Down But Not Out!

That moment when you just crack a random joke
So the world thinks that you are ok
When you know that although you are a fine bloke
You are somehow still standing on the crossway...

Wondering what went wrong...
Trying hard to stay positive
Just as you have done all your lifelong.
Down but not out... and never passive.

Life... you can push me on the floor.
But you can't keep me down.
I swear I will swim back ashore
I swear I will score a touchdown!
