AT LONG LAST! The first song unmixed from my album! Man it feels like forever, right? Iâve been stressing out hardxcore this week and decided WHAT THE HEY! This one is called âFight Songâ and to paraphrase myself from my first show ever, âThis oneâs about how all of your friends are pregnant.â
"Fight Song" by Christopher Butcher
Here it is the sum of all fears
That we never ever did get away from here
Weâre still kicking it back after all these years
But we can soften the blow with a couple of beers at the bar
We can hang & just shoot the shit
About whoâs on drugs and who got pregnant
About whoâs divorces and who finally left
& How theyâll be back here in a year or less & I know
I donât think Iâm cut out for this town maybe this town isnât cut out for me
But if youâre not going to be here tomorrow thatâs just one more reason to leave.
Each of us made a plan to get out
Of our dead end jobs & this nowhere town
But we all got lost & never were found
Talking about glory days before we were down & out
If I ever manage to escape
to a not-entirely similar place
Iâll tell you all about how I got it made
When we meet back here at the end of the day & I know
I donât think Iâm cut out for this town maybe this town isnât cut out for me
But if youâre not going to be here tomorrow thatâs just one more reason to leave
But if youâre here then I guess weâll seeâŚ
In the shadow of our past selves we gather here and stay
Maybe weâre over-nostalgic or maybe weâre afraid.
Leaving home itâs such a burden
Making friends, saying goodbye to old
So Hail to thee my Alma Mater
To hell with you my home.
