Lyrics:

Words and music by

Roddy Frame





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.
