So I'm done with all this pain that I kept
Like a boxer who's been knocked down and lost his step
The doctor said, I'm sorry son
You can't win, you can't win this one
[Chorus]
I've been fighting life on my knees (Over and over)
I'm standing up above the ropes so I can see
So I'm sorry I've been such a mess
And I promise I will do my best
I've purged myself, of all this pain
Like cheap, like cheap champagne
[Chorus x2]
There's one thing that I know
Somewhere I lost my hope
I've been wasting so much time
So I'm standing up, and I'm screaming out
That there is love inside, oh there is love
[Chorus x2]
I'm standing up above the ropes
And finally I am free to breathe
And finally I am free to breathe
Now finally able to breathe
Now finally able to see
Above the ropes
