The Knights Are Dead

The knights in shining armor have all died the damsels in distress are left...distressed what once was chivalry and manly pride by silence in the fight is now expressed Where are the men who knew the right from wrong who'd come to save a weaker one from pain perhaps they have forgotten to be strong their pleasure and their peace they want to gain And so they leave the wounded in the field Endeavoring to find what brings delight forgotten are the ones they were to shield They leave them there to suffer through the night You were a knight, but that you are no more those days are gone, they only live in lore Eileen Manassian
