Lyric discussion by NexusHUB 

I just see this as a man who's hopeless, who's not getting what he wanted out of life. He seems to present it as a story no one wants to hear, that doesn't inspire anyone despite it being the brutal reality of many people "still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the life". I think it just shows his best efforts to live on his own despite thinking he can't do it, and this is supported by the boxer metaphor. He's fighting to stay alive and to live on his own, even though all the odds are against him. And every blow he takes just makes him want to go home more, but he can't leave, and so the fighter still remains.

*disregards the rest, sorry, not very good at keeping my words organized, am I?
