The Comeback Kid[1] is a song by The Midnight. It is the seventh track from their album Endless Summer.
The song was written by band members Tim McEwan and Tyler Lyle and produced by McEwan. It has a running time of five minutes and 21 seconds and is in the key of C major.
The Comeback Kid was used in McEwan's 2016 Sonic Academy course Synthwave With The Midnight, which breaks down the song's composition, techniques, and plug-ins used.[2] It was also one of the four songs whose stems were made available to download during the first The Midnight Remix Radio competition.
On March 27, 2020, a new acoustic version of the song titled The Comeback Kid (Isolation Relief Mix) was released as a single.[3] All proceeds from the single went to members of the band's touring group who had been displaced from work due to the effects of the global COVID-19 pandemic.[4]
Lyrics
i been so low
felt the wind blow
like i was a screen door
in a thunderstorm
yeah i've been down
i've been laid out
but you always were
what I came here for
waiting all day
waiting all day
just for my say
for a bell to ring
for the first sting
Yeah I been blue
that ain’t nothing new
it’s you my friend
you’re why I get up again
I’ve make mistakes
I’ve been hard hit
I say so what
so what if I did
I’m the clear eyed
I’m the
comeback kid
start it over
start it over again
I'm the clear eyed
I'm the comeback kid
it’s been a rough year
been some tough tears
I’ve lost so fast
all that I had
but when it’s time to
i will fight for you
cause you know you are are
why i’ve come so far
I’ve make mistakes
I’ve been hard hit
I say so what
so what if I did
I’m the clear eyed
I’m the
comeback kid
start it over
start it over again
I'm the clear eyed
I'm the comeback kid
