Sport has turned words like animal, beast, freak, and super human into words of endearment.

History has regarded these words as fearful, nightmarish, strange,  and blasphemous.

Yet mecidal advancements have made these words. clone able, detectable, observed, and revered.

Kinda made me think.

Faded clothes,
Burnt face,
Sticky hair,
Filthy palms,
Bloodshot eyes,
Sweaty arms.

Dried throat,
Painful thighs,
Sore feet,
Divided crowd,
Pitiful players,
Swollen knuckles.

Torn hope,
Crumpled chance,
Sunned court,
Tumbling scores,
Coughing points,
Silver lining.

Drugs in sports, teens on drugs,
Does society give them too many hugs?
Bullying and deals,
Dealers are a bunch of heels,
Teen lost to 'the scene'.
Drugs in sports,
Winning's a rort,
Most drugs wins, I thought,
Drugs in sports, teens on drugs,
Who gave them too many hugs?

I walk down the street and all I can see, are people taking pictures of what they're about to eat.  Did you even notice the girl sitting across from you?
     I sit in your room with nothing to do. A victim to the screen between me and you. I guess there's somebody else that you'd rather be talking to.
   Hold on, time out, help me.
   We go out to shows but why do we go, if we're only gonna see it through the screen on our phones?
    If we're all here together then why are we watching alone?
    The world's so much bigger than posing for pictures, if that's all that we need's at the tips of our fingers.
    How did this happen that we all fell so out of touch?
   Hold on, time out, help me.
     Tell me how it feels cause I know the hardest part, is when you're holding something real, you can see it in the dark. I'll tell you how it feels and here's the hardest part; If you wanna reach for something real, you gotta see it in the dark.
    I wanna get lost in this moment. I'm keeping both of my eyes open. I've got nothing to prove. So, let's keep this to ourselves.
    Yeah, this connection has caught my attention. I don't wanna share this with anybody else.

    I wanna get lost.
