The Warrior

Do not give in to the warrior in black

Fight bravely under Christ’s mask of red

Live, for red masks your own blood’s slack.

Remember the child you saved from her attack

The innocence you saved from being shred

Do not give in to the warrior in black.

Remember your energy from before her ransack

Though you drown in fatigue, yearning for rest’s bed

Live, for red masks your own blood’s slack.

Remember the people you got back on track

You loved them, though crushed by what they said

Do not give in to the warrior in black.

Remember that sight you will not always lack;

Though you battle blindly, keep fighting this dread.

Live, for red masks your own blood’s slack.

As all these things start to crush your back

Remember you may die, but will never be dead.

Do not give in to the warrior in black:

Live, for red masks your own blood’s slack.
