intro

AHe won the Brace
The judges concluCded
He was the better mDan
He'd come for vEictoFry
AAh ah

A hesitaAte       A       B 
A one time show and Cplace
Himself would not alDlow
He had to Ebe the bFest
AAh ah  B 

He had deCnied    D 
His urEges cause they would have drained his stFrength
The battle had been wGon, with side effects a fHew

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

AShe aced the teBst
A grade above the rCest
She set the cuDrve
A ninety-thEree perceFnt
Was nAot enough to feed her fiBx
She needs a perfect scCore
Endorphin rush she lovDed
It would opEiate Fher
AAh ah  B 

She had denCied  D 
All alElegations of her lonelFiness
That battle had been wGon
With scars still under wHraps

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
