Irish coffee and silence
remind me why she left
to baptize the world
with her fire and ice
I just thought it would be different
waking up on the bank is not the same
as walking on the water
or through the fire
they say you will know instinctively
how to tread repentance
but no man knows
how deep the blisters
or frost will bite
the whiskey tells me
if the demons are gone in the morning
it was just a bad dream
