Analysis of The shirtless jogger
I stopped taking shirtless picks
it got me nowhere with the chicks
In the bathroom I locked the door
in the mirror I flexed some more
I jogged everyday shirtless
just to come home feeling worthless
I woke up early for the run
to snap a picture of what I've done
Hours wasted in the mirror
attention elsewhere, personality bare
chiseled six pack gone in a day
eternal loneliness is here to stay
