If I were Penelope
I'd never falter
And if I were Beowulf
You'd be safe with Hrothgar
But I could not survive the rapids of the Mohawk
Or stop the tears of Taranaki
And I could not speak the way Genji talks
Anansi told me a story's just a story
Lords and ladies and briar
Chariots and dragon's fire
Sometimes I feel so tired
Helpless and screaming
What else can I do
To help you or myself from reeling
But there's no knights in shining armor
Or lone gunmen by the fire
And all castles fall eventually
If evil wore an ugly face
Then maybe I'd know myself
And if true love never failed
Then maybe we wouldn't need anything else
But not everything's gonna work out because you want it
And there's always gonna be a joke where you're not in on it
Sometimes you deserve to be alone
And there's no sword waiting for you in the stone
Ballads, banners and songs
Laments for a life long gone
I don't have the answers
Just fading dreams
There's not always gonna be a way out
From the story you lead
And there's no knights in shining armor
Or lone gunmen by the fire
And all castles fall eventually
But isn't it nice to wonder what it's like
Wind in your hair
And the world's so big you'll never know the end
So there's no end to fear
To fight like Lancelot fought
And know the source of all of your tears
And with your voice guide Heaven and Earth
Like Guinevere
There's no story told that
Doesn't reach an end
Keep moving to the sunset
The horizon stays ahead
And there's no knights in shining armor
Or lone gunmen by the fire
And all castles fall eventually
