The moon in the sky, I could grab it and shine its light right on you
And all of the things that you said would come beaming through
This waltz of conversation, twisting about this home
I don’t care to dance but if that is your stance then I’ll dance ‘til the morning has come
All of the walls around us, hiding the strangers inside
And all of the cars that we’re driving drive us into their lives
The morning comes dear and serene while the night was so overdrawn
And the choices you make come about when you wake and the headache blanks out the dawn
All the things that you have and all the things that you own
Couldn’t match up to the people that you welcome into your home
All of the things taught in schools and all the signs on the road
Couldn’t match up to the lessons that you’ve learned on your own
Out of your lungs comes water. I should’ve known that that’s not right.
But it’s hard to walk away when you’re smile, it shines so bright
And the courage that I once had is now just a cascade
You’re a person I met and a dreamer I bet, but a monster that I made
And your home, your trash, your castle. Your rolled up dollar bills.
To you it’s just a cocoon. I see a coffin already filled.
The locks on your door for protection. The tongue in your mouth for deceit.
I’ll walk out the door and see you no more except in the people I meet.
All the things that you have and all the things that you own
Couldn’t match up to the people that you welcome into your home
All of the things taught in schools and all the signs on the road
Couldn’t match up to the lessons that you’ve learned on your own
