Let Me Howl
The moon is shaking off the snow
From its haunted uniform
Tell me what it means
And don’t make it mean nothing
I am lost in a wilderness
Speaking your name out loud
In hills indifferent
Hear me howl
In a wilderness
Laying waste to my powers
And the moon, high, incurious
Hear me howl
Let me howl
Don’t hang up the phone
Just give me back to your mother
You fell in love with yourself
Enough to break your own heart
And I couldn’t say no to myself
Enough to break my own heart
Now I am lost in a wilderness
Speaking your name out loud
In the hills indifferent
Hear me howl
In a wilderness
Laying waste to my powers
Only the moon, high, incurious
Hears me howl
Let me howl
I am lost in a wilderness
Speaking your name out loud
In hills indifferent
Hear me howl
In a wilderness
Laying waste to my powers
And the moon, high, incurious
Lets me howl
Hear me howl
Hear me howl
Let me howl
