Out Cold

Round one has just begun. The bell rings and my heart sinks. Put my game face on and stand up proud. Bright lights, center stage, the roar of the crowd. I'm here to win I'm here to fight. Can't let you see my weakness. Constant failure, this is my reality. Do you feel any pain? No. There's no room for defeat. I'm my own worst enemy. Round two, beaten black and blue. Out of breath, out of time, out of my mind. Smell the blood, there's no love in here. Pick myself up, dust my shoulders off. ( Do you think you're animal enough?) Can't you see this ain't the life for you? You never know who are tried and true. You never know who are true. ( Ten counts, all is lost, knocked out cold.) Knocked out cold. Ten counts all is lost... all is lost.
