A bigger world, was what I saw, before it hit me like a train on the first round. I was almost knocked out but hope was a second chance, Every second that passes, I get older, and my beliefs falter, And then again my teeth are punched out, This time there is no pain, just a desprate grasp for air, But with all my might I push ahead, Staggering forward half blind and half deaf, Swinging pathetic fists embroiled with hope, Swinging endlessly into the dark.

A Bigger World
A bigger world, was what I saw, before it hit me like a train on the first round. I was almost knocked out but hope was a second chance, Every second that passes, I get older, and my beliefs falter, And then again my teeth are punched out, This time there is no pain, just a desprate grasp for air, But with all my might I push ahead, Staggering forward half blind and half deaf, Swinging pathetic fists embroiled with hope, Swinging endlessly into the dark.
To all those swinging fists
