Doesn't matter if I don't win the gymnastics. I know that my speech is graceful.
Doesn't matter if I don't win the marathon. I know that I endure.
Doesn't matter if I don't win the swimming. I know that I don't tread water.
Doesn't matter if I don't win the archery. I know that my words hit the target.
Doesn't matter if I don't win the cyclying. I know my destination.
Doesn't matter if I don't win the tennis. I know I am volley good.
Doesn't matter if I don't win the syncronised swimming. I go thru my life holding my breath.
Doesn't matter if I don't win the sailing. I know that the sea will be no more.
Doesn't matter if I don't win the diving. I know that the angels will save me from being felled.
Doesn't matter if I don't win the pole vault. I know I am for hi-er hites.
Doesn't matter if I don't win the hurdles. I step over them every day.

I Win
i win because i don't mind losing
i win because i play no game
i win because i be cause
i win because i want what fate wants
i win because i make an art of failure
i win because optimism changes the goalposts
i win because don't all of us lose?
i win because it would be awkward if i ever did
i win because i lose and lose my target
i win because i'm poor enough to appreciate what's rich
i win because i like to watch you winning
i win because i lose so often i can still look forward to winning
i win because i play no game
i win because i be cause
i win because i want what fate wants
i win because i make an art of failure
i win because optimism changes the goalposts
i win because don't all of us lose?
i win because it would be awkward if i ever did
i win because i lose and lose my target
i win because i'm poor enough to appreciate what's rich
i win because i like to watch you winning
i win because i lose so often i can still look forward to winning

It Matters Not
It matters not if I walk when I can write my way to anywhere.
It matters not if I sing if I don't have the voice for it.
It matters not if I live if I inspire suicide.
It matters not if I dream when dreams are all that lead me on.
It matters not if I breathe when I go thru life holding breath.
It matters not what I look like when I hold up a mirror to you.
It matters not if I exist when I'm worth more on dying.
It matters not if it matters not if there's not matter for it to be.
It matters not if I'm fatter or I'm flatter if you scatter.
It matters not if I think if I do it without ink.
It matters not if I listen to this song if it tells me I don't belong.
It matters not if I work if you work not to see me.
It matters not if I be if you don't acknowledge me.
It matters not if I sing if I don't have the voice for it.
It matters not if I live if I inspire suicide.
It matters not if I dream when dreams are all that lead me on.
It matters not if I breathe when I go thru life holding breath.
It matters not what I look like when I hold up a mirror to you.
It matters not if I exist when I'm worth more on dying.
It matters not if it matters not if there's not matter for it to be.
It matters not if I'm fatter or I'm flatter if you scatter.
It matters not if I think if I do it without ink.
It matters not if I listen to this song if it tells me I don't belong.
It matters not if I work if you work not to see me.
It matters not if I be if you don't acknowledge me.
