Feeling like a number is where I am at now

Measure this, quantify that, must I kowtow?

Too much massaging the scores, too little action

Save it for later, Bring on the passion!

Escaping this figure frenzy is a goal of mine

A cardinal rule; forgiveness divine

Am I just another stat in someone's game?

Turning over dirt, exposing my shame?

Sadistic, hedonistic powers of ten

Logarithmic statistics once again

Simplistic square roots, answers in pen

Can I ever forget the fact that we hardly spend...

Any time together?

I don't want to view the score sheet,

Nor do I want to take another swing.

Rebounds, ERAs, RBIs, TDs

Move over, I am adjusting my tee.

Scared to kick the ball

For fear that in the end, it's all

Just another figure for me

To calculate on my Wii.

Reverse the trend, I can't

Should I stick my head in the sand?

Counting numbers, I can't stand

Am I just another stat?
