lyrics

A lone moth orbits streetlight's flickering
halo, believes he's found the moon.
Pulls him ever closer, but he
sees no tranquility.

He scans the sky like a satellite.

Like a sharp wave breaking before
reaching the shore, frothing, aimless,
he flails graceless, tracing frantic
patterns across the night.

He scans the sky like a satellite,
awaiting replies that never arrive.

A sign, just a sign
that all is alright.
Let him not soak up that moonshine,
find the ground he's missed for some time...

Sometimes, things don't turn out as planned
if there is some Big Plan at all,
but I know you've still got it in you
to sling that stone & slay that giant.
