played the game
my mind on the sideline
my muscles too lame
tv static fills the gap
between my bones and my thoughts
others block my signal when
they pass through my knots
haven't been glad
in a long time
happiness is gold
in an abandoned coal mine
my soul is sweet honey
but i was born without a mouth
and two eyes to hate self
and a mind that self doubts
im tired and my face
tells people i've tried,
or failed to try
and lied
'your mouth is open'
"i know
as well as my hand
where everything goes"
