Elusive Knight Lyrics - Always, Then & Now - Jay Brannan

it's a dark night, no sign of armor 

well alright, i'm the one who brought me here 

i've been wrong, but i've also been stronger 

so how long can i push away the man i fear? 

have you ever felt hopeless? 

have you ever been lost? 

ever looked back at the person you've become and wondered if it's worth the cost? 

[chorus:] 

oh elusive knight in, in shining armor 

can you get through, i've charged head first into my own padlocked cave 

oh knight in shining armor 

could this be right, am i willing to fight out of my own grave? 

the truth is i never thought i'd make it this far 

it's ruthless trying to believe in who you are 

have you ever felt tired? 

have you ever ever been scared? 

ever forced yourself past the finish line to realize you're only half way there? 

[chorus] 

oh knight in shining armor 

it feels right, i've gotta find a way to be brave 

dear knight, in shining armor 

could this be right, am i willing to fight out of my own grave?
