A Small Victory

A hierarchy
Spread out on the nightstand
The spirit of team
Salvation is another chance
A sore loser
A sore loser

Yelling with my mouth shut
A cracking portrait
The fondling of trophies
The null of losing
Can you afford the luxury ?
A sore winning

But I'll just keep my mouth shut
It shouldn't bother me
It shouldn't bother me
It shouldn't bother me
It shouldn't bother
But it does

The small victories
The cankers and medallions
They keep me thinking that someday
I might beat you

But I'll just keep my mouth shut
The little nothings
It shouldn't bother me
It shouldn't bother me
It shouldn't bother me
It shouldn't bother
But it does

If I speak
At one constant volume
At one constant pitch
At one constant rythm
Right into your ear,
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
