Aztec Camera

Song for a Friend

Aztec Camera


Awake,
In winter's crystal 
hours,
And give to what gets 
you in the end,
For the sake of a love 
that just devours,
And smiles and takes,
And lays you down again.

Run free
The moon is always 
female,
Straight to what's 
still and will not bend,
Don't wait for his 
sunshine to surround you,
Consume and fake,
And let you down again.

Cos' life is short,
And you better get 
smart,
To the people who know 
nothing,
And surround you.

Stand straight,
In what kills you and 
confounds you,
And break its chains,
And still believe.
