some dreams are made for diplomat's sons
some hands are not attached to potters
i have two of those hands
i have no potter's hands
i only have two hands
to hold all the wrong things
from hurt to hurtful
to wrinkle their fingers
like caved in ribs of an umbrella
that will not withstand
or press in the growing eyebag
i have no potter's hands
and it mostly makes me feel bad

like caved in ribs of an umbrella
that will not withstand
or press in the growing eyebag
i have no potter's hands
and it mostly makes me feel bad
"your running tires
they're out of pressure
such a sign only you would know"
