How did it come to this?
The Knight who once protected me,
Not my biggest threat.
How did it turn out to be like this?
The one who vowed to keep me safe,
Now after my life.
How did this happen?
The pure and innocent,
Now corrupted.
How did things change?
The one who carried me in thy arms with love,
Now despises me.
How can you change so much?
From a friend to foe.
From a partner to nemesis.
From a protector to predator.
From a dream to a nightmare.
Who can save me now?
The sword that once protected me, now after my life.
And I run even though I know I have nowhere to hide.
You know me too well
Finding me is nothing but a child's play to you
I can't keep running
For how long will I run?
You are persistent, never tried.
Stuck in my head, I can't sleep.
But not anymore.
I choose to fight.
No more running
No more hiding
I'll play your game
But this time I will be the one seeking.
