White Lion's "Little Fighter" : Does Rupert's "Theme Song" work better for Tyler?

There is a lot to talk about in the next Real-Time Re-Read post, so I decided to collect the video and lyrics to White Lion's "Little Fighter" in its own post.  

The band was a favorite of Peter Fleetwood, the supposed father of Rupert, who died in an avalanche when Rupert was only two. Rupert had a video of his father singing "Little Fighter" to him as a baby, so, according to Decima, he adopted the tune as a kind of "personal theme song."  Onc of his prized possessions was a vintage band t-shirt, which Rupert considered "lucky" but which, according to his roommate Zacharias, he destroyed shortly before his disappeared. 

Despite being a child of the 80's, I was not familiar with either the band or the song, but thanks to the internet, it is relatively easy to look up.  What is interesting to me is how much better the lyrics seem to fit Tyler Powell than Rupert Fleetwood. 

Are you cryin tonight?
Are you feelin' all right?
I told the world that you were down on your luck

You were one of a kind
One who'd never give in
Even when they put a price on your head

Has anyone heard the tales you tell
Or seen the scars you wear?
Did anyone speak up when you fell?
Does anybody care?

Rise again, little fighter
And let the world know the reason why
Shine again, little fighter
And dont let 'em end the things you do

And you were one with a cause
And a reason to be
You were a fighter for peace on this earth

And you were never afraid
You put your life on the line
And you were always alone out on the sea

Without a weapon in your hand
You came to fight a war
They took your life but didn't know
That you would never die

Rise again, little fighter
And let the world know the reason why
Shine again, little fighter
And don't let 'em end things you do

Are you feelin all right?
'Cause I care, care

Run along, little fighter
Oh 'cause I was there beside you
Never stop believing, so rise
Rise
Rise

Rise again, little fighter
And let the world know the reason why
Shine again, little fighter
And don't let 'em end things you do

Rise again little fighter (don't stop believing)
And let the world know the reason why
Shine again, little fighter (and keep on moving)
And don't let 'em end things you do
Yeah, don't let 'em ever end the things you do

Tyler certainly had an unlucky life, between adoptive parents who didn't want him, the slander he faced after the car accident and his eventual murder in the silver vault. He was "one of a kind" in that he was the only one willing to protect Chloe, Ian Griffiths put a "price on his head" and, if Tylor didn't have scars pre-vault, he certainly did after his corpse was mutilated-- the cross carved on his back, for instance. Specifically, Tyler's grandmother complained no one "spoke up" for him after he fell from grace amid the false accusations of causing the car accident. Indeed, there were few who genuinely cared about him. He had a "cause"--  and a willingness to fight to free Chloe from her abuser, which put his life on the line, as he set out for London alone in hopes of establishing a new identity in which Chloe could join him. Though Griffith took Tyler's life, thanks to Strike and Robin, the world will know what he tried to do, so, hopefully, the story of his courage will never die. 

Tyler was a "proper man" and a proper little fighter, who unfortunately lost his battle.
