Samurai

from LOSTANDFOUND by Stephen Bard

/

lyrics

Brandishing the saber at your side
Basking in the safety you provided for so long
Decades of protection
Stretching past perfection to another place
Discovered somewhere hidden in a song

Was it wrong to ask for more than you could give?
Was it selfish wanting you to live forever?
Because I did and still do
Sad but it’s true that’s no one’s destiny
Especially for somebody like you

Samurai

Couldn’t feel your fingers any longer
Ringing in your ears getting stronger every day
Strength and hope decaying
Reluctant hero fading in the endless night
Waiting for another round to play

Samurai
Why?

Samurai
Magic with a sword
Samurai
What you were moving toward I couldn’t follow
A beating heart so hollow and so dry
When warriors are done do they choose their place to die?
Either way with every fiber of my being
I can sit here now and cry
I do not want to say goodbye
Say goodbye
Say goodbye
Say goodbye
Samurai
Why?
