I Remain

[Verse 1]
How crass you stand before me with no blood to fuel your fame
How dare you wield such flippancy without requisite shame
Your very existence becomes my sacred mission's bane
You bow to kiss my hand and I ignore ignited flame

[Chorus 1]
How I'm moved to meet you
Untouched I do remain

[Verse 2]
To some it seems foreign, why I would steely forge ahead
This land entrusted to me knows not of hallowed secrets
I'll keep it to myself while your brave eyes swim in my head
Your charm can not distract me from the path I'm born to tread

[Chorus 2]
How I'm thrilled to know you
Unaffected I remained
How I've learned to like you
Undeterred I do remain

[Bridge]
Less daunting as team
And you unlikely king by my side
And me so much better for trusting you

[Verse 3]
My hand over your heart while you keep hindrances at bay
Color me surprised by how our union saves the day

[Chorus 3]
How I've grown to need you
As my soldier need fades
How I love to love you
And how'd I remain

[Outro]
I remain
I remain
I remain
I remain
I remain
