Ben Folds Five - Boxing (live) Lyrics
Have happened latelyWhen I take a good swingAnd all my dreamsThey pivot and slipI drop my fists and they're backLaughing, HowardMy intention's become not to lose what I've wonAmbition has given way to desperation and ILost the fight from my eyesBoxing's been good to me, HowardNow I'm told, you're growing oldThe whole time we knewIn a couple of years I'd be throughHas boxing been good to you?Howard, I confess I'm scared and lonely and tiredThey seem to think I'm made of clayAnother day, I'm not cut out for thisI just know what to say, I sayWell sometimes I punch myself as hard as I canYelling nobody cares hoping someone will tell me howWrong I amHas boxing been goodHas boxing been good to you?
