Zugzwang

My toe is cut
My head still hurts
The pain I have
inevitable curse

The words I heard
Absurd and purged
They words unheard
They hurt the worst

The feeling is cold
And long; drawn out
When I change tones
I am told, I shout
But what I fear most
Is what tone is allowed
That of the other
And most of their pals
Majority rules
So you are ruled out

Catch a tiger
by the toe.
Catch a tiger
by the toe
Read the rhyme,
Don't let it go.

History sides
with the side that sizes
I am uptight
cause I fear what I'm tied in
A title worth lying
A tidal wave, Poseidon
Escaping through the night
While the firefight is rising

Blade to a blade
Like blood to an oath
Rains today
But the sun still shows
Basic saying
Is some will grow
One day I'll await
And the wait will show
And the wait will show
And the wait will show

What world I lived
And what world I opposed
What would I give
To leave the world I loathe
What world I lived
And what world I opposed
What would I give
To leave the world I loathe

If I fight; demand,
Then I lack my own actions
Acting without thinking
Is the reason we differ
Deferring to a reason
Feels like sinking to the earth
Kneeling and yielding
They are verbs to a word
Screaming and seeing
Similar to a curse
The silence of the bleeding
They have words unheard

And they hurt the worst
