intro
[A]He won the [B]race
The judges conclu[C]ded
He was the better m[D]an
He'd come for v[E]icto[F]ry
[A]Ah ah
A hesita[A]te[A] [B]
A one time show and [C]place
Himself would not al[D]low
He had to [E]be the b[F]est
[A]Ah ah[B]
He had de[C]nied[D]
His ur[E]ges cause they would have drained his st[F]rength
The battle had been w[G]on, with side effects a f[B]ew
I J
He may have dropped the world
K L
He would not let us down
M N O P
I hope she's in a better place
[A]She aced the te[B]st
A grade above the r[C]est
She set the cu[D]rve
A ninety-th[E]ree perce[F]nt
Was n[A]ot enough to feed her fi[B]x
She needs a perfect sc[C]ore
Endorphin rush she lov[D]ed
It would op[E]iate [F]her
[A]Ah ah[B]
She had den[C]ied[D]
All al[E]legations of her lonel[F]iness
That battle had been w[G]on
With scars still under w[B]raps
I' J'
She may have dropped the world
K' L'
She would not let us down
M' N'
Endorphin rush she loved
O' P'
She may have dropped the world
