Celogen - The Thief

The moon is a thief, the light is lying
Just dregs of the glow, just dregs of the glow
All the flares in the world wouldn't help you fight it
With its long limbs, it grabs all that you hold
It will outlive you and your naked little soul

High tide at night, just like God insisted
Rotting wood in the light, rotting wood in the light
For it's never enough when a sailboat's sinking
It has to wash up on a lonely springtime night
All it wanted, the chance to be alive

Was there a glimpse that your father tried to show you?
A little ray on the strand, a little ray on the strand
A kiss of cold and an arm that the world could glow through
If you just knew, dear, of the dreams I used to have
He grasped its image and held a coin in his hand

But now you face it alone, you are not so clever
Where's the end to loss? you scream in the dark
The dreamless sleep and the blur and the burning feathers
The light keeps shining and that is your response
The moon can't help it, it is just a ball of rock
