Battles

through this night
you're warmer than fire
in every streetlight reminder
in every tunnel we pass
a flash and
we start to remember
who we were when we were young
who we turned out to be

through the theft of our heartbeats
through the promises we break
through the stars that we aimed for
through our years of endeavor

you're warm like fire
a last reminder
in every border we cross
a flash and
we start to remember
all the dreams we deserted
all the battles we fight
will you carry me high
