The Inevitable Knockdown Lyrics

Hopes were high when I stepped in the ring
what goes up must come back down again
4 long months with a steady descent
won't ever happen again

Knocked down
optimism overrated
Knocked down
pessimism reinstated
Knocked down
once again I gotta make it up from
the inevitable knockdown

No hope left and a bottle of gin
might as well, it's becoming a trend
4 long months and a lot to repent
won't ever happen again
