His opponent spitting fire, but honors is all he sees.  When the last blows are delivered, he’s down on both knees.  His cry pierces the night; driving you to your knees; you realize the shadow, is a reflection of your own “mortality”…Cinderella…Cinderella.

“…Cinderella, can you hear me…Cinderella, can you see, the pledge I made thee, has brought me to my knees.…” “Cinderella, can you hear me…Cinderella, can you see, my heart I gave to keep you warm, my soul to keep you free.”  “…Cinderella, can you hear me …Cinderella, can you see, with my dying breath, I pledge eternally.…” “…Cinderella, once again, in the wind, from heaven on high, I’ll keep you safe and warm tonight…Cinderella, Cinderella…”
