Dead as the Moon Lyrics


So you swerved away

In a painless loss

Never saw you leave

Nor when the line was crossed

Farewell

My friend

My heart

See your eyes dissolve

And your smile is new

See how faces change

In this mirrored tomb

You still seem so alive, so real

But I know you are dead

Dead as the moon

Out here on the stage

How they all perform

Actors in a farce

In a slave's play

Farewell

My friends

My fellow ghosts

See right through their masks

As they stare through me

Our horizons meet tonight

They all seem so alive, so real

All injured to live deaf and numb

And I see they are dead

Dead as the moon

Wait

Am I not the same? (Am I not the same?)

Forgotten who I am and why

Lost I play the game (Lost I play the game)

Drawn to this black star

We all seem so alive, so real

All injured to live deaf and dumb

Turning blind by this darkened sun

And I see we are dead

Dead as the moon
