I hate that feeling, When you can't lift the barbell anymore. Then your brother walks in to the gym, Looking at me like I'm a foreign species. But in his eyes I see you looking at me, Tracing my skin, loving my corners, And walking away. Suddenly 12 reps doesn't seem like enough, And I need to punch something.

I hate that feeling, When you can't lift the barbell anymore. Then your brother walks in to the gym, Looking at me like I'm a foreign species. But in his eyes I see you looking at me, Tracing my skin, loving my corners, And walking away. Suddenly 12 reps doesn't seem like enough, And I need to punch something.
