Eternal Knight
I wait in the empty darkness
In the shadows of the night
To feel the burn of the fire
But the darkness doesn't hide out the candle
The glow and shimmer of redemption
Where is our ambition
What is my ambition?
To fight this war, between creatures so dark
To hear people yelling it's over, redemption
Into the night
Lighting once again a stick of wax
They come toward us. In their eyes i see, raging fire
Breaths are taken away by the endless heat
As each beast shows ambivalence
Each of us blow out our candle
So there is nothing left but darkness
The 12 foot beings search for us through the night
For us there might be redemption
The demented humans redeploy
After they have cleared out, we light our fire
We walk back to camp for the night
Not knowing they're watching us ambient
They wait in the dark
Untill the last one is blown out, the last candle
Then it's blown, the flicker
Demons are redoubtable
When a bolt of lightning ruins the darkness
I gallop out of my tent with a torch of fire
In my hand. In front of us holds a big condition
But the war goes on through the night
At that moment 2:47 we stood boldly as knights
Nothing ahead or behind us but the ashes of candles
We found our ambition
We are finally free, we're redeemed
From this day on I think of the glowing fire
And those evil eyes, we defeated in the darkness
