lirik lagu midday moon – astronautalis
a sliver of chalk across the blue
lord knows i don’t know what the h-ll’s the use of the midday moon
you came to my arms too godd-mn soon
lord knows i don’t know what to do with you and the midday moon
this is just to say
they’ve taken everything away
every step we made fit into six trucks
pick-ups drawing dust above the driveway
the muddy cavalcade came at half past eight
collecting everything in that gr-ssy bank
and every trace of you was taken too
and what was once a womb is just a hollow room
it was a windy day
that kind that makes me hate l.a.
’cause god gave them a perfect sun
and they think gangs and smog were hardly a fair trade
they don’t breathe or flinch
or even blink at how the green will shift
when the wind parades across the meager ridge
and kicks the weeds a bit to make seem as if the lea is a sea of waves
they say you can’t cheat death
maybe it’s just a shortness of breath
or no pains in your chest
a disease we agree that we ain’t cured yet
forgive me dear
i never thought that we’d end up here
from [“sweet dreams”] whispered in your ear
before a long night’s sleep so cold and clear
a sliver of chalk across the blue
lord knows i don’t know what the h-ll’s the use of the midday moon
you came to my arms too godd-mn soon
lord knows i don’t know what to do with you and the midday moon
i’ve been told that when we die we p-ss onto the other side
there’s no bright light, no bright light.
death is just a pasture gate that opens by lifting a plank
to just more life, just more life
i met an old man, sun-tanned, provided by jesus
and the light that p-ssed through stain gl-ssed pieces
he clutched a rosary flat to his chest
and confessed he wasn’t ready for death
i seen an iron eyed firefly, femme fatale
too vain to explain how her hair fell out
l-sting for the next thing to erase her shame
she doesn’t want to live forever, but she’s scared to fade away
this is how they came to me, one at a time
pilgrims to my building on the cemetery ground
all they wanted was an answer and i could never let ’em down
i couldn’t promise them forever but i could buy a lot of time
you jeanvieve, you were the straw
whispering your wishes in cotton quebeois
i wonder if the maker ever felt he botched the flock
but never had the mettle to make the world stop
stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop
[i wonder if the maker ever felt he botched the flockbut never had the mettle to make the world stop]
stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop
[i wonder if the maker ever felt he botched the flockbut never had the mettle to make the world stop]
stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop
stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop
a sliver of chalk across the blue
lord knows i don’t know what the h-ll’s the use of the midday moon
you came to my arms too godd-mn soon
lord knows i don’t know what to do with you and the midday moon
a sliver of chalk across the blue
lord knows i don’t know what the h-ll’s the use of the midday moon
you came to my arms too godd-mn soon
lord knows i don’t know what to do with you and the midday moon
