Beautiful Gloom - The Sleeping

On my way down, I saw a different side of the moonlight

You fell straight through the gloom, damaged, haunting into open wounds

Intimidated, too afraid to screw my head on straight and fly

Words ricocheting, skimming both our bodies to a violent tune

But when I fell straight down I swear I witnessed a different side

On my way down, straight down

I saw a different side of the moonlight

Shocked, grim, speculating the worst before I hit the floor

My bones fracture the fall;

incessant waves seem to gush from your eyes

I should feel exasperation but to my surprise I’m in a state of love

Before the curtains closed, I swear I witnessed a different side

On my way down, straight down

I saw a different side of the moonlight

I’ve been changing, sinking deep but wide awake for days

I need you

I’ve been changing, sinking deep, but wide awake for days

When’s it gonna end?

On my way down, straight down

I saw a different side of the moonlight
