lyrics

Woke up sometime near midnight
And the moon nearly blinded my sight
I asked the moon "Why do you shine so?"
And it replied "I need you awake tonight
I have to work so hard giving you this light
And every day I control the tides
But no one ever thanks me for my plight
Could you just please talk to me tonight?"

And I said "Don't you worry
I'm no fool
I'll be your ear that listens
In this world that's so cruel
You can lean on me
If you need a friend
I'll be here for you until the world ends

And maybe together, we can start something new
I'll make this deaf world listen
Like I did with you."

Walked out into the sunlight
When I noticed it was fading away
I asked the sun "Why do you not shine bright?"
And it replied "It hurts to see this planet die

I try so very hard
To shine with all my pride
But everyone is destroying this gift
They devastate and do not realise
That all of this will lead to their demise
