The Moon

I need to know what makes you glow
is it the sun across from me
or is it coming from within?

you're the light that guides me through the night
my troubles lay awake and my demons laugh
when i roam through alleys and you're all i have
tonight, i can't let you go

for some time i've wondered how you got here
but i'll never know, until i find out on my own
but why have we forgotten you
why have we gave up on you?
is your presence so minuscule that we forget?

it's things like you that give me hope there's more out there
than the ugliness i've been surrounded with for far too long

i'm calling out, if you're out there
take me away forever to utopia among the stars

Earth

We have so much to do
so much we won't
and i'm sorry for all the pain
and the treatment we've given
is a disgrace, we are the shame that live in your lands

and if i could retrace my steps to the beginning and start anew, i would

what have we done but march each other to our deaths
our mothers and fathers, our sisters and brothers
and we all live in an inevitable death cycle
and we all believe that faith has a place to heal the center of man


but what is man and are we even worthy
no, we are not, we are monsters
and it's the same story they want us to tell
good and evil, and the good shall always prevail
but this wasn't decided upon
yet we still move on

how do we move on

Venus

Oh what a sight this is
all the wile and empty creatures
the filth that inherit the land
believing anything with an ounce of hope
because they can't stand the fact that death may be an end

and neither can i, but i will die

one day the skies will burn away
the sun will wither with time
we all wither away with time
and our memories are nothing but mere
grains of sand that we forget

oh we forget, everything

the violent will inherit the ends
the faithful will live to die by their faith
and i, i will linger, until i find meaning
in myself, i can't let you win this battle
and the war i've created, is far from over

one day the skies will burn away
and we all wither with time
the skies will burn with the souls of a hive

remember the difference

Mercury

It's the starving heat that repeats in all our eyes
closest to the sun but it still won't die
because of the distance of each others hands

grab me by the wrist please
let me lay with you
let me sleep
for tomorrow i take the longest trip across the skies

and if by any moment you've forgotten about me
it's okay because i've forgotten about you
i've learned to let go of the past
because out here time doesn't exist

so grab me by the wrist, please
and let me lay with you
let me sleep
for tomorrow i take the longest trip across your eyes
