Secrets and Costs (Secrets of a Royal Guard)

Secrets and Costs
Secrets of a Royal Guard

No more secrets, no more lies
Only the truth, left out to dry
The Guard leaves home, heading for war
To return to his love, he all but swore
But that return might not be all in one piece
The Silent we know, will upon that day will cease
Growth and change is the way of life
Trials in fire, facing down strife,
but no matter what happens, time marches on
bringing each day, a brand new dawn
but each day is not always dawned new
Sometimes your demons follow you
Trials of life, and trials of war
Facing all these, and so much more
Never again will he be the same
Never again will he shed the shame
Trials we live though, and so much is lost
Every action we take, has a cost
The costs can be large, the costs can be small
But tell me, Knight, do you truly know them all?
