mourning skies blush over the castle walls
as knight's still rest where their armor so falls
side a lady of means, caught between two
a lord of ages, and a love of few

cackles and calls stir the sleeping stale air
rousting those who serve the lord's daily prayer
except this day by their amorous view
the lord awakened to the loss he knew

trumpets will blare to an endless flag's wave
jousting the hearts of more than just the brave
cold steeling moments, crushing to the bone
all for a life of just dying alone

joust a bout anything short of one knight
hold deeper the love, and fight the good fight
