lyrics

I can't help your dog from dyin',
I couldn't change the traffic light,
And I can't keep your eyes from cryin'
But God knows if I could, I'd eat your pain.

All the world reverse, my gut drops through my feet.
That's my Lady Moon up there with the glassy eyes.
I swear I love you once and I love you a thousand times.

I would lend you my strengths,
You've always done the same for me.
Peel open my head and take what you
Need to gleam like a whole moon.
You're all the light the night should need.

I can't stop my lips from tasting,
Drink to keep myself complacent.
Then you step in, a fine distraction
From thoughts as low as killing myself.

And on a bad day, a stormy sky-
The clouds as thick as smoke
To blur your shining eyes.
It's such a dark way to spend my night-
Senseless rotation, rational thought begone!
I'd first be fixed on you.

All the world in place, the heart precedes the brain.
If I could stop my spinning head, I'd never see the day.
I swear I love you once. I swear I love you always.

Don't you bury your head.
Peel mine open instead.
Now I'm spinning again.
Lady Moon in orbit.

I would lend you my strengths,
You've always done the same for me.
Peel open my head and take what you
Need to gleam like a whole moon.
You're all the light the night should need.
