Mud On My Boots

Here I am

Happy and awake

I see the cloudy sky

Today i'm just another guy

My boots are shiny clean

Sewn by machine

Today I turned sixteen

I can finally go live my dream

I can work with a team

And we'll do the extreme

So I live my dream

I know not to scream

Instead I roar and Yell

Almost reaching the bell

It felt like hell

Please don't write

But know I am alright

I was always your knight

I'm sorry I won't be home tonight

I will miss your love

But I will send the whitest dove

You may miss me

knowing that you can't kiss me

My boots no longer clean

But remade by the seam

With a little bit of blood

I stopped the biggest flood

Within this life

I couldn't beat the knife

Without a bit of mud

I would have been just another dud
