The pugilist who lost the fight, Took his own life Doesn’t seem right. Fighting depression Round after round Hitting the canvas With unerringly sound. There’s no more bells No more punches to give Inside the ring of ropes Where he once lived.

The pugilist
The pugilist who lost the fight, Took his own life Doesn’t seem right. Fighting depression Round after round Hitting the canvas With unerringly sound. There’s no more bells No more punches to give Inside the ring of ropes Where he once lived.
