Clara

My Light Knight

I have walked the straight and narrow

26 years and still I aim

To keep my gaze steady and not compete

Resist the temptation, the ending, that I seem to seek

One day soon you will cross my path

Your head held high

Beliefs clasped tight against the cross  

Inside my dark mind, among twisted thoughts 

I will pray that you see me

This lost wandering sheep 

Can you help me? 

Your world is black and white 

I\'ve began to see the grey, the pain

Darkness 

I don\'t think you realise 

It\'s everywhere. 

I am not who I used to be 

I am not who I should be 

Please see me, embrace me in your light 

I stand here, wearing a painful smile

And the shadows... 

They\'re reaching and without you 

I am weak 

Hello

You there, with your righteousness

Your steadfast ideals and golden heart 

I dare you 

See me

See me and claim me for your own

Lead me back towards the light

A member of your flock

Just don\'t let me go

Keep me close, stay by my side 

I am a flight risk 

A high risk, since 

I broke my wings when I fell 

I keep falling and it hurts

Help me up and lead the way 

By your side I\'ll always be 

You see, My Light Knight 

My saviour... my life 

I refuse to believe I lost this fight

And with you

I just may stand a chance.
