Don't Quit

You've come so far
You've made it through the worst
But now you talk of quitting
Of giving up the purse
You had almost won the race
You just can't give up trying
When all you have is a short time
Then you can stop your crying
Why quit when you're so close now
You've almost reached the end
You'll be done soon then you'll see
Your injuries will mend
Things look bad now but they'll turn around
You'll make it and you'll survive
So don't quit now, just stick it out
And be glad to be alive.
