Lost glory

Once, i travelled land and sea,
A warrior strong, feared was my steel.
My name was known throughout the pits of hell
But my glory was taken, in anguish i fell

I fell to the blade of a knight
His armor as black as the night
Barely alive was my fate
Never to rise again

He haunts me still
I can still feel his breath,
Breathing down in my neck
He left his mark on my flesh
My honor was torn,
My glory forever forlorn

The battle was over, my wounds were great
I lay there for days, but death never came
He granted me life, a fate worse than death,
A life full of shame, fear and regret

I would give you my all,
To see the black knight fall
Stripped of his glory and fame
Never to rise again

It haunts me still
I can still feel his breath,
Breathing down in my neck
He left his mark on my flesh
My honor was torn,
My glory forever forlorn
