Sweet Pest

sweet pest 
know not the pain of summer sun
our heart 
beats to the rhythm of our song

loves beast of burdan lasts 
dripping with the fangs of gutter snipe
know not of burdans last
ducks will dive on summers lakes

sweet pest of summer past 
sweet pest of summers yet to come
my dreams remain
the dust of darkend night

I rise throught shadows 
none to bright 
I fight with cravings 
yet unknown 

yet battle weary standing tall
I know I rise before I fall
sweet pest oh yet our love remains
the battle not as yet a drain
