Strung Out - Contender lyrics

A quiet moment before the champ goes down Through the doors of his decision to fight Through one last round Though he's beaten and he knows it No way in hell he's gonna throw it all away So on with the round and into the light of all The camera and predictions, news radio depictions Of a fight he knew he'd never win So for the record it's just another day, all things Fade away. He stood fast 'till the end and met his Fate with right hook to oblivion and no one cried His opponent young and eager to accept the admiration Of the crowd paid no attention. So down he goes Surrounded by the faces that once proudly, only built him Up. Now he lies surrounded by the one who do not care Signed, sealed, delivered. He stood fast right until the Very end, no commentary about the sate of grace he's in The champion has lost, what will the paper say about a man So for the record, it's just another day. All things fade away It's just another day, how will i fade away
