Dm baritone chordDm
Woke him up with a barrel to his head

His eyes shut tight bracing for the blow
G baritone chordG
Resigning his life to the metal held
Dm baritone chordDm Dsus2 baritone chordDsus2
In another man's hand

Twenty days in a concrete fallout

What life have i to take your own

Oh my country won't you call out

Doorbells are ringing with boxes of bones

To a prison cell in my own

And your eyes too big for the belly is weak

About this song: Camilo

"Camilo," is ultimately about a man and war. In October of 2003, Sergeant Camilo Mejia, returned home from Iraq and tried to be a conscientious objector, however he was rejected. A conscientious objector is someone who refuses to participate in military service on the basis of religious or moral principles. Sergeant Mejia was considered AWOL. The first verse explains the life of one man ending. "His eyes shut tight bracing for the blow. Resigning his life to the metal held, in another man's hand," explains how this man knew he was going to die and all he could do was shut his eyes and wait.
