Dont Leave Me

The battle rages
Don't leave my friend
This mind's questioning
Seems to have no end
A wounded soul's
So hard to defend

On love's rocks
The mermaid cries
Her siren song
My logic flies
Steel my heart
And still my mind
Me of past battles
Be kind to remind

Take my hand
Lead me away
From this death
Though I'd rather stay

Find me a shield
'Gainst Cupids mark
Strip the veneer
Show me stark
If need be
Show me the end
This beating heart's
So hard to defend
Please stay tonight
Don't leave me friend
