Bill Fay Group - Cosmic Boxer (Official Audio)

“Cosmic Boxer” by Bill Fay Group from the upcoming album ‘Tomorrow Tomorrow and Tomorrow', out 2/23/24 on Dead Oceans.


Lyrics:
Each day was another round for the cosmic boxer,
boxing his own shadow the whole day through,
in a ring set out in the sun,
that seemed like a cocoon,
so many times was it wound round with hangman's rope.

He would find a way through, box on.
He would find a way through, box on.

His was the victory,
over the throbbing cell,
concealed beneath his cloak, the cosmic boxer.

Emblazoned in stars,
defeat was often in his eyes,
it's true he viewed the cocoon with despair,
yet boxed on.

He would find a way through, box on.
He would find a way through, box on.

Face your shadow on the stairs,
face him now he's always there,
but don't let the sun go down without taking away some of your cares.

You're gonna find your way through, box on,
you're gonna find your way through, box on.

Not by your own merit, cosmic boxer,
not by your own merit, cosmic boxer.
