Lyrics:
A quiet moment before the champ goes down through
the doors of his decision to fight for one last
round. Though he's beaten and he knows it, no way
in hell he's gonna throw it away
So on with the round and into the light of all the
cameras 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 'til the end and met his fate with a
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 ones who do not care. Signed, sealed,
delivered...
He stood fast right until the very end, no
commentary about the state of grace he's in. The
champion has lost, what will the paper say about a
man whose proven only to be 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...
