[Verse 1]
You must listen to this story
Pay attention to this tale
For you to bathe in glory
You must be doomed to fail

Let you in on no secret
Give yourself no head start
Taking the breath is easy
Making is the hardest part

[Chorus]
This is a cause for alarm
Get on your knees and pray
Don't be a knight in armour
Without a beast to slay

[Verse 2]
There is no dress rehearsal
There's no easy lesson learned
Better to be breathing fire
Than to have your bridges burned

Let it be your only duty
Dedicate it to your own
If you gonna fight like lion
Someone ought get murdered off
[Chorus]
This is a cause for alarm
Get on your knees and pray
Don't be a knight in armour
Without a beast to slay

This is a cause for alarm
Get on your knees and stay
Don't be a knight in armour
Without a beast to slay

[Verse 3]
Fire fall upon us
And lighting shall strike the Earth
For you to reach salvation
You must value what it's worth

When there are great expectation
There is no one else to blame
You can either shoot for freedom
Or you drag a ball and chain

[Chorus]
This is a cause for alarm
Get on your knees and pray
Don't be a knight in armour
Without a beast to slay
This is a cause for alarm
Get on your knees and stay
Don't be a knight in armour
Without a beast to slay
