Sweet Victory
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The winner takes all
Its the thrill of one more kill
The last one to fall will never sacrifice their will
Don't ever look back on the world closing in
Be on the attack with your wings on the wind
Oh, the games will begin
And it's sweet, sweet, sweet victory yeah
Ats ours for the taking its ours for the fight
And it's sweet, sweet, sweet victory, yooh
And the one who's last to fall
The winner takes all
You don't win no silver
You only lose the gold
You push with a fever for your time keeps tolling on
Against all the odds, against all your pain your backs on the wall with no one to blame
Wild hearts won't be tamed
And the one who's last to fall, the winner takes all
And the one who's last to fall yeah
And the one who's last to fall
The winner takes all
