So I fell hard son
The fighter in me fell down
Thirty rounds in the ring
And the crowd is quiet now
Well the ref tapped me out
But that referee was me
Hung my head so very low
A sad reflection was all I could see
And I'm not looking
For a shot at redemption
Just a reason for all the pain
And it's not like I've
Not been here before
Questioning lines I've been told
Searching for signs in the smoke
But the crowd is quiet now
All embers burning now
Will they guide me on
I was riding high son
Eyes fixed to the sky
All ego and I
Waking up only to find
Bright lights only show what you hide
I left the solace of that space
In search of greener pastures
But the field I'd made
I was safe as I'd ever be
And mountain peaks
And friends that leave
In one way or another
I still call you brother
Built a house on top the rubble
Of debts, I owe it's only
Everything I could be
If I'm falling will you hold me down
And nothing makes you ready
For the part that is taken
You find a way to deal
With the pain
And it's not like I've
Not been here before
Questioning lines that I've wrote
Searching for signs in the smoke
But the fire is all but out
All embers burning now
Will they guide me on
No shadow holding me down
Sun is on the way
It was always there despite the rain
If I'm the fighter then I am the enemy
One more time
One more fight
And it's all I've ever known
It's all I was ever told
That all I could ever hold
Ever let go
Ever buried brothers too soon
What a hill to die upon
Like some superficial martyr
More I fight it just gets harder
Yeah I'm hungry for something
But it's all here I don't need nothing
My friend we all have someone
Something we can keep the fire alive for
And it's always been about
A single shot at redemption
A purpose for the way I was made
And it's not like I've not been here before
Two counts I'm back and I'm worn
Wiser for all of the scorn
Got a fire burning now
All embers in the doubt
They will guide me on
No shadow holding me down
Sun is on the way
It was always there despite the rain
If I'm the fighter then I am the enemy
One more time
One more fight
