From nobody to literary sensation: the new voice of Charles Bukowski

We fought the good fight, we gave it our all,

But sometimes the world just seems too tall.

We put up a fight, we took our best shot,

But in the end, we just couldn't give it another knot.

We gave it our all, we gave it our best,

But in the end, we just couldn't pass the test.

We gave it our all, we gave it our all,

But in the end, we just couldn't stand tall.

So we raised the white flag, we gave up the fight,

We let go of the past, and let go of the light.

But even in giving up, there is still a way,

To find a new path, to find a new day.

So don't be afraid to give up the fight,

It's not the end, it's just a new sight.

For in giving up, we open new doors,

And find new strength, to fight once more.

So raise the white flag, and give up the fight,

For in giving up, we just might,

Find a new path, and a new way,

To live life to the fullest, each and every day.
