Bleeding and bruised I lay there
Evidence of the aftermath of rage
You walk away with pride in your eyes
A smug satisfaction at my seeming demise
Your assumption will be your undoing
For I am nowhere near my end
I have strength within me yet
To rise and give as good as I get
So turn around and face your fate
For I am the answer you desperately seek
The solution to all your torments
The end you seek in quieter moments
Come coward for I will not yield
This fight can only end in death
Only one will walk away from here
Or do you leave because it's death you fear
Have you no honor or pride of self
Finish me before I finish you
For there is nowhere that you can hide
From the mirror of your bruised pride
I'll be waiting here for your return
A constant reminder of your failure
Your inability to finish what you start
For that I will gladly play my part
Though I may be tired and beaten
I will not yield until death comes calling
For I am a warrior through and through
And I stand defiantly waiting for you
