You came into my life
all shiny and bright--
you were my Knight
in shining armor...
But you faked your way in--
you knew how to win
my heart and my
favor forever
The Knight disappeared
but your armor remains
concealing your pain
and your fear,
It gets harder each year
to be as you appear
when your armor
has lost its veneer:
What good is this mask
when it becomes
such a task
to keep it all shiny & bright?
Look inside, my friend
to discover the end
of your misery
and internal plight!

But you faked your way in--
you knew how to win

The Knight disappeared
but your armor remains
concealing your pain
and your fear,
It gets harder each year
to be as you appear
when your armor
has lost its veneer:
What good is this mask
when it becomes
such a task
to keep it all shiny & bright?
Look inside, my friend
to discover the end
of your misery
and internal plight!
