Must have been toughest I'd seen pound for pound at the shows
Tattoo of fear only God, never man on his closed eyes
I caught up to the renegade deep within the underground and said: Talk to me, friend
I grew up as the welterweight, of this town
First came the quick one and two through the jaw, he blacked both my eyes
Never before had I seen only stars in the daylight
He said come back again when you're healthy, I'll let you try another round
He said: Talk to me, boy
I took out every welterweight around
I shot for the Moon and flew through the Sun, I was moving too fast
My mind's made up, my mind's made of mud, I was moving too fast
One, two, and three, all living just to be, I can honestly say how I do not know
I fell awake, and then just stopped calling
You know, you know, you know that my fear of the sky is inherited
If only they could fly through the song
You know, you know, you know that look of the eye is imperative
If only they weren't the ways to the soul
Everything's all right for now, he said
I feel just like I'm falling down from the gates where I used to live
It's been so long since I've been around
To live alone, live off the crumbs of your love
Fall on the lust and the long tooth
Fully in love, fully in love with the mount and the road opened up to you
Everything's all right for now, he said
I feel just like I'm falling down
