Come Walk With Me

Come and walk with me
climb with me the greatest hill
yet should I run from your flame 

should I burn my dreams
with your eternal, fire light
or cool love without desire

my heart creates dreams
my love glows with lovers flame
yet I can not trust the dream

the battle rages
fight we struggle on survive
dreams are lost to alcohol

surrender now peace
the silent rage of battle past
night falls the battle lives on

I am wiser now
having learned from many fights
yet an idiot never learns
