Kameradschaft

	are you close to
	or far from your conscience?
	as the petals of life
	decay
	"ignorance is bliss"
	the sad remiss
	to the clarion call
	of today
	(see how it burns)
	but, we struggle in wyrd with amusement
	and, contempt for all that holds
	sway
	are you close to
	or far from your conscience?
	is the question I ask
	today
	(see how they run)
	kameradschaft!
	are you close to
	or far from your conscience?
	as their reason for life
	fades away
	petty beliefs - petty platitudes
	all ring hollow day
	are you close to
	or far from your conscience?
	as the blossom of life
	drifts away
	are you close to
	or far from your conscience?
	is the question I ask today
	kameradschaft!
	every angel knows
	the congress of liberty
	the sadness and smiles
	of our memories
	with this - we let go
	our lady of the snows
	kameradschaft!
	are you close to
	or far from your conscience?
	as their meaning in life
	dies away
	are you close to
	or far from your conscience?
	the question I ask today
	kameradschaft!
