Knock Me Down Again (by mrb89)

You put me in the middle of all your knockout fights
You’ve feed me the same old tired lines,
Well now I’m ready to go.

ROUND ONE-
I’ve never been very good at taking hits.
But that doesn’t mean I’m gonna bruise
When you strike out at me this time.
GUT PUNCH- You used love against me.

ROUND TWO-
Okay so maybe you’ve been winning the rounds,
But this time I’ll stand stronger
I refuse to be your punching bag…
ONE-TWO-THREE you knock me out
With another one of your low emotional blows...

ROUND THREE-
I am not even stepping in the ring,
This time I’ve found the only way to win
Is to never even try to begin with.
So I am bowing out,
Some might say it’s the cowards way
But I call it self-preservation that has come
Almost too late.

FINAL BELL-
You’re still raging,
And I’m long gone.

END MATCH.
