Assemblage 23 - The Poison Moon lyrics

The flashbulb blind The siren blare A palpable tension Like a vulture circling in air The shivering hours Unanswered fate Inquiring the liar The body lay just out of frame I still recall the poison moon That burned up in the sky that night Peering down as if to say This all means nothing As obvious as midday sun Regret hung heavy in the air Reaching out as if to say This must mean something Uneasy words Weighed down by fear Met with emotional riot And motives unclear The trusting heart No longer beats Arrested by anger Drowned out by the hum of the street I still recall the poison moon That burned up in the sky that night Peering down as if to say This all means nothing As obvious as midday sun Regret hung heavy in the air Reaching out as if to say This must mean something Daylight revealed The frosted dawn The city awakened its dim eyes And grimly went on And all around Nobody knew A story with no one to hear it Has little value I still recall the poison moon That burned up in the sky that night Peering down as if to say This all means nothing As obvious as midday sun Regret hung heavy in the air Reaching out as if to say This must mean something
