Today she woke up covered in smoke from the night before
The sun broke through her curtain - blinding, blinding her
There's no more coke, she feels like a joke
Two guys passed out on her living room carpet
She craves more
She goes into the shower for a little healing
It's the closest thing to God that she has found
Sure you can talk a lot of smack about a girl like that
But I know how she feels:
There is a little voice telling her how happy she could be
But there's a bigger voice, telling her just how sad she really is
Don't go anywhere with anyone, do anything -
Do another line, waste another day
Go ahead and throw yourself away ______________
Do you see her dilemma? In the morning there's no hope
Coming through that window - her dreams are dead
She goes into the shower for a little healing
It's the closest thing to God that she has found
Sure I can talk a lot of smack about a girl like that
But I know how she feels:
There is a little voice telling you how you could be your happiest
But there's a bigger voice, telling you just how sad you really are
Don't go anywhere with anyone, do anything -
Do another line, waste another day
Go ahead and throw your dreams away ______________
Moon

The moon bestows a certain effect upon my life
As if the beams from its reflected light could relate to my body
They pour deep within my conscience and soothe my soul
The light from it can only be compared with my likeness
For as I look to the sun's love and peace upon the earth
So also does the sun reflect the moon
For I can never have the glory of the sun
Just as the moon cannot possess the power to light the world
The moon shines brightly through the darkness as my
Heart does in this world
Only by the sun, only by the sun
Thus I say that God has placed the moon around the earth
To remind that if we look to the sun each day to
Give us the love we need
We will survive all of life, all the ups
And come through all the downs
Take the life you have, learn to love, learn to give
Follow your heart to where it leads you most
Drink the fruit of life, know all you do can be
Love, love, love, love, love
The moon…
