Bloody knuckles and broken jaws
Pain killers aren't doing their job
Head trauma has got me seeing stars
But I'm addicted to the applause
I'm just a Prairie kid trying to make an honest living
Doing what I'm told and now I'm the villain
Popping pills that the team supplies
Doing what I can to get by
Only a victim in reporter's eyes
But they'll still use me and the rest of the guys
I'm just a Prairie kid grown up fighting for his brothers
History repeats, I'm just like the others
This fucking game seems so insane
When you see Probert's brain and Boogaard's pain
It never stops because its all the same
And some things never fucking change
