The moon's a harsh mistress And the moon's a harsh mistress See her how she flies Golden sails across the sky Close enough to touch But careful if you try Though she looks as warm as gold The moon can be so cold Once the sun did shine

Thermal count is rising in perpetual writhing The primordial ooze and the sanity they lose Awakened in the morning to more air-pollution warnings Still we sleepwalk off to work as our nervous systems jerk Pretending not to notice how history has forbode

Before the song goes off We both know it's been too long Show me just how you feel So good to see you here Back like we used to This time I won't lose you I still adore you You were always loyal I'm gon' show you just how I feel

How close am I To losing you What could I say You were far away Didn't ask you why I was far away You just walked away

Only my way, my way, my way goes If you don't know how to treat a woman Close your eyes, ain't no point in looking Over here with the weak shit Get out of here with the weak shit You won't get nowhere with that No I don't want that back Don't want that

Always lose it in the end I don't know How I can let you go How will I let you go Yeah, I said too much again Yeah, I pushed too hard again And I wanna start, but when Stupid once again You wanna be my friend

A place where I can go To take this off my shoulders Someone take me Someone take me home Now tell me, how did all my dreams turn to nightmares? How did I lose it when I was right there? Now I'm so far that it feels like it's all gone to pieces

How we gonna move together? Just come closer If we don't move together Come closer How we gonna breathe? How we gonna be together? Just keeping the peace between the sheets Just keeping the peace Home now, end of the night

You don't know what love is. You don't know what love is 'Til you've learned the meaning of the blues Until you've loved a love you've had to lose, You don't know what love is. You don't know how lips hurt Until you've kissed and had to pay the cost,

Icarus is flying too close to the sun And Icarus's life, it has only just begun Your hands protect the flames From the wild winds around you This is how it feels to take a fall Icarus is flying towards an early grave Look who's digging their own grave
