down goes the champion
disappear into the past
his glory fading out
know it would never last
faced with reality
just a shell remains
nothing to fall upon
and no one else to blame
raise your white flag
and hope that you get out alive
you must survive
here comes the challenger
see the fire in her eyes
12 feet above the rest
see her cut through all the lies
faced with anxiety
oh when will all this end
no one believes in her
and no one is her friend
raise the skull and bones
and scream with all your might
it’s time to fight
here we come, here we come
(long long way to go)
down goes the champion
even she was born to lose
it’s always next one up
and the crowd will always choose
raise the white flag
and hope that you get out alive
you must survive
raise the skull and bones
and scream with all your might
it’s time to fight
raise the checkered flag
the winner’s driving by
is driving by

What no comments? This one works for me. Love the lyrics... Actually, I'm wondering whether, like me, you were watching the winter olympics while writing? All sorts of stuff snuck into my lyrics, inspired by the coverage in the background. And when the games finished, the ideas dried up for a day or two for me - almost like I'd relied on them. Anyways, remembering how I was feeling those couple of weeks, I can kinda see how this one might have had the same thing going on in the background.
