Woke up one morning,
   saw everyone play,
   a game I never learned,
   a game I couldn't understand.
   So I watched for a while,
   tried to figure the trend.
   But I stumbled and fall,
   and I rose up again,
   and I still didn't learn
   the rules of the game.

   Took one brave step,
   towards the cheerful crowd,
   tried to follow their steps,
   tried not to stay behind,
   gathered all my resources,
   tried to focus my mind.
   But I stumbled and fall,
   and screamed with great pain,
   and I still didn't learn
   the rules of the game.

   Carefully watching,
   tried to find some pattern,
   to understand the idea,
   so obvious to them,
   made many great efforts,
   to fit to the scheme.
   But I stumbled and fall,
   and had no-one to blame,
   and I still didn't learn
   the rules of the game.

   Then I asked for their help,
   then I told all who cared,
   that I need some guidance,
   that I want to understand,
   and they smiled back to me,
   and they told me "You'll learn".
   But I stumbled and fall,
   it was all just the same,
   and I still didn't learn
   the rules of the game.
