The Champion Lyrics
The champion, he locked up the fight
With a strong uppercut from his right hand
Might has overcome right again, he cried
I'm much too tired to explain
How I let my life get away
Older now everyday, I tried
It's not that I'm scared
But just that I care
What you're going through
Oh...
Breaking the rules one by one
Trying to convince all my friends
This'll never happen again
And I'll try to make amends
Oh...
With a strong uppercut from his right hand
Might has overcome right again, he cried
How I let my life get away
Older now everyday, I tried
But just that I care
What you're going through
Oh...
Trying to convince all my friends
This'll never happen again
And I'll try to make amends

i like this song.
i really like the 3rd verse about caring what someone's going through; resonates with me at this time in my life.
This song will ease you into sleep in the most wonderful way
There seems to be a recurring theme of drug addiction ("morphine in my sleeves" reference in Yellow Datsun, "I just can't speak when I'm high" in Squirrels, etc.) in a lot songs. This could be about the fight against said addiction.
"How I let my life get away" "Convince all my friends this'll never happen again"
It sounds like apologizing after a relapse.
