Different Moon

DIFFERENT MOON

© Breeze Vincinz


Your song has bled us bone dry
Wonder about our masochism
Our bodies bread, our blood wine
Our desperation catechism


The air is a disease aquarium 
Holding our breath for a cure
Our voices used to carry them
But nothing is for sure


Not anymore; it’s a different moon
Not every door opens to a better room


And we don’t dream like we used to
Back when sleeping was easy to do


How about instead of dreaming of you
I dream for you
And somehow that wakes you up
And brings you back to me


My dream was like a memory
I blame it on the sun
It gleamed away identity
Leaving the battle scars we won


Our afflictions and addictions
Together we love and cope
Not loam deep definitions
With no future or hope


Not anymore; it’s a different moon
Not every door opens to a worse room


Our nightmares got bigger as we did
Our fears just as scary as any kid


How about instead of dreaming of you
I dream for you
And somehow that wakes you up
And brings you back to me


How about instead of running to you
I wait for you
And somehow that shakes you up
And you run back to me


With your rebel heart and outlaw spirit    
Clear a path in this dark, dark world
Sharpen yourself, your decency, your wit
Clear a path in this cold, dark world


How about instead of praying for you
I have faith in you
To clear a path in this dark, dark world
Clear a path in this cold, dark world


I am crying for you
I am crying with you


I wonder about our masochism
And that song you sing
And how I always listen
And the blood it brings


And the men we become 
When the sun gleams us bare
Complete aura freedom
And I’m in love with what I see there


Forevermore; it’s a different moon
It knows the sun will be coming soon


Sleep isn’t always easy but in the same bed
If I can’t dream, put my hand behind my head


And instead of dreaming of you
I’ll dream for you
And somehow that wakes you up
And it’ll bring you back to me


And instead of praying for you
I’ll have faith in you
And somehow you’ll find me
And you’ll run back to me
