he fought a thousand battles
with an armour and a sword
he drove a snowwhite stallion
he was a knight, he was a lord
but now his sword is conquered
it's filled with rusty stains
and all the fights he's gone through
they all seem so in vain

this pilgrim's gonna leave
he's gonna leave, he's gonna leave
far beyond the living zone
he's gonna leave
far beyond the living zone

his body is so tired
it's damaged by the scars
he cannot stop the bleeding
he'd rather stop his heart
he's growin' insane
just livin' on a wire
he feels this aching pain
this KNIGHT is dying

but he hears the angels cryin'
they're filling up the lake
and he hears the demon call
but his soul was never sold
his soul was never sold

this pilgrim's gonna leave
he's gonna leave, he's gonna leave
far beyond the living zone
he's gonna leave

he's gonna close his eyes
deep down in the water
he's gonna wear a shiny armour
and he promises you
it will shine like gold
it'll shine like gold
deep down in the water
it'll shine like gold
