I am just a bloke

Steve Wollmer

I am just a bloke
Into Blokey stuff
I am rough and ready
You know, kind of tough


But this is just an image
That I let you see
Inside I am so different
Hidden away, the real me


So it is with two me’s
That you will contend
The shiny Knight Protector
And the one he must defend


Both lives are at conflict
I struggle day by day
I can never be too careful
Little Steve can’t come out and play


I locked him in the dungeon
For protection and safety
A prison of the mind
Safe from reality


No one understands me
The protections well in place
No one really knows me
Through this mask I call my face


The shiny knight protector
On bold steed is set
He swore an oath of courage
The pain he will not forget


He has broken down the dungeon
Thrown open the gate
Little Steve set free
I hope it’s not too late


Both now ride together
Free under the sky
Their instructions very simple
You’re cleared to fly
