it only looks easy {python}

Hydrogen in our veins
It cannot hold us up
My blood is boiling
The pressure in our bodies
That echoes up above it is exploding

The knife spins in a 360 before hitting the dummy in its left shin. The next one gets closer to the desired area, but still is a few inches off and only cuts a shallow mark in the dummy's forearm. The last knife in your hand is flung towards the dummy, and for a second it looks like it may be hitting his head, but it goes left and hits the wall before it falls to the ground.

Luckily, no one says anything, and they don't have to because you know exactly what they're thinking.

You decide not to give up completely, but you want to move on from the knives and pick a new weapon, so you reach for the spear and lash out at an inanimate dummy. You spin and twirl like the dummy could actually hit you back, and when you think you're doing pretty well until the realization makes its way to your mind. No one in the arena will just stand there defenseless.

Except, maybe you.

And our particles they're burning up
Because they yearn for each other
Although we stick together
It seems that we are estranging one another
Feel it on me love
