The Tide (Moon's Song)

A song for Looks to the Moon. All things must end, but sometimes it's worth hanging on a little longer.


Catch a fragment of blue sky through the fractured ceiling
Grab a picture, try to hold on to this feeling
Isn't it identical to something that you've seen before--?
You wouldn't know
(Just smile, try to let go)

Close your eyes, and feel the storm roll in
Floodwater's rising tides that filter through your skin
Hear the thunder's rumble toll the cycle's end
Let go and float as you drown again

Tears a puppet cannot cry, and words that only go unspoken
Over severed lines, cut by the time that you'd awoken
Maybe there's a chance he'll find whatever he was looking for
You wouldn't know
(Just let it slide and let go)

Close your eyes...

Promise that you tried so hard despite their faithless fears
The holiest of lies has left you lowly, stranded here
You hope they're happy with the ending they'd forsake you for
You wouldn't know
(Still trying to let go--)

Fleas and ticks and jellyfish
Can teach you how to live like this
To sink into the kind abyss
A mindless and eternal bliss
But what of those who want to live?
Whose hearts can mend and yet forgive?
You wouldn't know
But maybe you're not ready to let go

Close your eyes and feel the storm roll in
Floodwater's rising tides that filter through your skin
Hear the thunder's rumble call the hour in
Float on moonlight through the water 'till
Another dawning day begins
