Moonlight drift away, dawn gives into day, and we all need something to live
I heard you crying, and I tried to find you but you had your reasons for hiding
First light gives shape to the work of the day and at our best we accept what we’ve made
Cause living is dying, and i try to fight it, but I know in end its all the same
I lie on my back and watch the grass sway above me, there ain’t no use in the stars
We used to starve when the gods turned against us, but now you boys out on wall street take your bow
there ain’t no god in it now
We’re praying for rain, the sun on our faces, and we pray for the folks out on the dole
We struggle to know, the things we can know and the rest we commit to the soul
Snow fell on our feet, so we sold off cheap, how did another year just slip away
I used to take pride, I’d sleep through the night, but now there’s too many bills unpaid
