Into the fire…

tallisman

Where the hunger is

Where the desire

Born in desperation

Raised from the mire

Struggle through life to

Raise themselves higher

But we’re all running

Into the fire

 

Twisting and turning

No avoiding our fate

Feeling the burning

Is this love or hate?

The struggle consuming

You’re beginning to tire

But you can’t stop running

Into the fire

 

Feeling so alone?

It’s part of the game

Without a sweet lover

There’s no-one to blame

Baby, If you want me

Look to the funeral pyre

I’ll be dancing like a flame

Into the fire

    I get a sinking feeling just reading this. The inevitability of it all. Powerful stuff tallisman. Thanks.
