The Fallen Prince - Part 2 (Reformated)

Through tear-filled eyes-
He saw a herd-
Of royal beauty stallions-
And perched upon-
Their royal backs-
Were knights
In white-
So gallant-

Carefully-
They scooped him up-
And carried him away-
Into the East-
They rode from hell-
For three
Long nights and days-

When long at last- 
With horses spent-
They reached
Their destination-
They placed him in
The hands of God-
For this was His creation-

Great warmth
Began
To fill his heart-
White light
Shone from his eyes-
He felt the gentle
Hand of God-
And he began to cry-

Such happiness
He had never known-
It lifted him so high-
He spread his wings
Up to the sky-
And he began to fly-

Up to the sky-
On mended wings-
With angels
All around him-
He heard the voice
Of God ring out- 
And totally surround him-

I’ve done my part-
My fallen prince- 
But the rest is up
To you-
Fly straight and true-
And don’t look back-
No matter 
What you do-

Lead not thee to-
Temptation son-
For if you do-
You’ll die-
Fly straight and true- 
My fallen prince-
Or forever-
Cease to fly-

Will the prince
Journey home again-
To his fair and lovely maiden-
Or will temptation-
Lead him back- 
To the evil- 
Black Knight
