lyrics

To the moon I say, we
Sail away
Afraid to go,
I strayed,
but already was lost
A whim, gone
Gone again
Afraid to know
What's set in stone's that crumble
Come back baby
Why did you go
You'd light my flame back there
As I dove inside your hair
Well Someday baby you're gonna know
You dressed up shame back there
cell phone calling off who cares

Run away
Fight and stay
I blame myself
And no one else
For what I've done
or did
when I was only a kid
I save myself
with everybody's help

Do I wait for nothing at all
the darkest candle glare
smoke breath billows in the air
Sun drenched battered Saturn's ladle
We sipped electric spoons
huffed jars of Jupiter's orange fumes

And now the moon is coming
Crashing down

All your insides hit the floor
You stop and think how beautiful
Like a dream ahead, now
born instead
I've been inside you
Moon blood drips down painted pours
Hand Held Heathens hold the door
signs and fields
you postulate
On what's inside you
Off lifts red Canary Crows
Carved up cardboard cover blown
crawl through fields of bones
blue symphonic tones
I've been inside you

You lick the wounds
of lepers who'll
be gone so soon
the power flowing from the
Crescent moon
Luna knew
To paint clear light
You must ignite
The sphere that guides
The light

Tears turn to steam
As my soul wept inside the cold
cause we're alive today but someday Babe I won't be
Coming around to see
What wasn't allowed for me
