in the dark

usually im on your team

this time you benched me

but im more than qualified

to play the game

i get you to smile

when your day

going bad

i no longer need

practice

i've beside you long enough

to know you

now you leave me

of all people

in the dark

i feel as if you turned off

the lights

i was benched

i've done more quarters

than most

for you i go twelve rounds

i've been your mvp

and v.i.p forever

i guess this veteran

been benched

you found someone

you can teach

left me in the dark
