Goodnight, Moon Eyes
Goodnight, Moon Eyes, I guess our stars are gone
And although I'm just a black hole, I know you could be my sun
Like the moon clings to the sun to bask beneath his light,
I cling to your side like a pathetic parasite
Like the cloud collects pollution and releases all her pain,
I'm foggy and confused until I cry my acid rain
And like the rain can hide for ages in a time of bitter drought,
I grow listless, drained, and empty so I can cope with all my doubt
I understand if you see nothing in this shell that I've become,
But you're the only reason I don't feel completely numb
You make me feel alive, awake my comatose soul
Your lucid eyes eradicate the ennui null
I can't remember how it feels to not feel so dead and dull,
But somehow you've cracked my sickly saturnine skull
Remind me I'm alive; rattle my cancerous cage
But I still can't find the key to unlock clandestine rage
In the end we're all alone, but "The End" is all a lie
I never say hello so I won't have to say goodbye
I dream of sleeping on a cloud of chaos and catharsis
So I can preserve this state of surreal anagnorisis
Love is like a virus, parasitic paradox
But it's symbiotic when we keep each other up throughout the night
The stars keep growing dimmer, like the glowing flame inside
What if they collapse like the Sun and Icarus collide?
I'll try to catch some sleep because my dreams are my escape,
But I'll lie here wide awake in numbing, gnawing ache
Paranoia fills the silence, every breath I cannot take
I don't want to catch up on my sleep, I just want to catch a break
We're both clinging to the past, we're both trapped inside our minds
I wish that we could both just move on with our lives
But not leave it all behind, and not bottle it inside
Just the scabs and scars alone until they heal with time
Goodnight, Moon Eyes, I guess it's not our time...
