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
