bruises

I tried to do handstands for you
I tried to do headstands for you
Every time I fell on you yeah every time I fell
I tried to do handstands for you
But every time I fell for you
I'm permanently black and blue, permanently blue for
you

You...
For you...
So black and blue...
For you...

I grabbed some frozen strawberries so I could ice your bruising knees
But frozen things they all unfreeze and now I taste like
All those frozen strawberries I used to chill your bruising knees,
Hot July ain't good to me
I'm pink and black and blue

I got bruises on my knees for you
And grass stains on my knees for you
Got holes in my new jeans for you
Got pink and black and blue

Got bruises on my knees for you
And grass stains on my knees for you
Got holes in my new jeans for you
Got pink and black and blue for

You...

The Battle...

Like most fairy tales there was once a demon whose existence hindered peaceful existence. He lived in a dark castle with high walls that seemed to touched the dark sky. There was a legend that said that the castle had been enchantingly beautiful before the demon had put an evil spell on it. However, because of the high walls all people could see now were looming dark towers.

The legend also said that a hero would arise from the fide clan who will scale the wall and defeat the demon. Over the ages only one leader of the fide clan scaled the wall and defeated the demon, but died in the process. Before battling the hero, the cunning demon using dark magic had put a small portion of his life in a candle that could never be lit. The leader weakened by the battle with the demon could not destroy the candle.

After the heroes death the demon revived with time and started to gain strength. The people started to despair again and looked to the fide clan for help and generation after generation the leaders of the fide clan tried to scale the wall but failed.

This is the story of one such leader.
