Peel Back The Moon, Beware! Lyrics - Back To The Web - Elf Power

Coming all around us in the blue light of the morning 

The whole entire world was in your eyes 

Felt so powerless and simple, the rain was on the window 

Sliding down and dripping all inside 

So I walked down by the water, saw the pulsing mass was shining 

Listened to the things out in the night 

Threw my dollars on the fire, crawled out through the wire 

Hoping we'd eventually collide 

"Hold my head" to the skin I said, when my heart wasn't always there 

As you turn down the light in the long black night, peel back the moon, beware! 

Through the darkness I kept moving, down the streets and through the alleys 

Hiding in the doorways from the cold 

And everything was pretty, stealing through the city 

Always somewhere better left to go 

So I climbed up on the mountain and the clouds were all around me 

I stumbled on, I could not see the light 

Always running from the slaughter, trembling through the water 

Trying to find away back down inside 

"Hold my head" to the skin I said, when my heart wasn't always there 

As you turn down the light in the long black night, peel back the moon, beware! 

In the shadows I was walking, I was hidden from the morning 

Everything just seemed to fade away 

I was living in a movie, you never even knew me 

The people looked right through the city
