Leave Me to the Moon (Live in Oslo)
[Verse 1]
I run against the hour — take me out of here
I waste my youth
On hollow talks and being scared
Is this wildness or the truth?
[Pre-Chorus]
I race the earth; I'm skin and bones
I'm empty eyes; I'm heavy air
I'm a doomed concussion; see you rushing
And I'm heading nowhere
[Chorus]
Go on, won't you leave me to the moon?
I can't believe we're giving in so soon
Go on, won't you leave me to the moon?
I can't believe we're giving in so soon
[Verse 2]
Our fathers chasing wolverines
And fire to our broken sea
And no one's ever telling me
Where to search for decency
[Chorus]
So go on, won't you leave me to the moon?
I can't believe we're giving in so soon
Go on, won't you leave me to the moon?
I can't believe we're giving in so soon
[Bridge]
You're emboldening my blindness with your kindness
Aren't you feeling it too?
That the good years are gone, and I'm caught in it
Just like you
[Chorus]
Go on, won't you leave me to the moon?
I can't believe we're giving in so soon
Go on, won't you leave me to the moon?
I can't believe we're giving in so soon
[Post-Chorus]
Soon, ooh-hoo
Soon
