My muscles tweak and pull in various directions
Revealing multiple complexions
Tissue aging in my head
Hide thoughts and memories till I lay dead

This beating heart with rhythm so unique
My flesh with scars so mystique
Novels and stories should I speak
Sagas hidden in my physique

It bothers me I do not know
The story behind your two eyes
A web of lies that we sow

And be blown away by this beautiful spectacle
But we'd rather be skeptical
Workaholic, everything's clerical
