Song for a Friend

[Verse 1]

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

[Verse 2]

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

[Bridge]

'Cause life is short and you better get smart

To the people who know nothing and surround you

[Verse 3]

Stand straight in what kills you and confounds you

And break its chains and still believe
