Of Moons, Birds & Monsters

Lyrics

Why'd you cut holes
 In the face of the moon base?
 Don't you know about the temperature change
 In the cold black shadow?
 Are you mad at your walls
 Or hoping that an unknown force can repair things for you?
 Pardon all the time that you've thrown into your pale gray garden
 If the ship will never come, you gotta move along
 Even a bird would want a taste of dirt from abyssal dark
 The prick of a feather could make a kingdom burn
 And the bloodshed start, the falling apart
 Made me a shadow in the shape of wonder, the waves of black
 If she's going under, I can hold my breath
 'Til the sky comes back or drown like a rat (rat, rat, rat)
 Ooh, he's a rat (he's a rat, he's a rat, he's a rat)
 ♪
 To catch a monster, we make a movie
 Set the tempo and cut and cut its brains out
 It will inspire on the burning pyre
 Half the distance, half the motion
 Communication is easy as the ocean
 
 Why'd you cut holes
 In the face of the moon base?
 Don't you know about the temperature change
 In the cold black shadow?
 Are you mad at your walls
 Or hoping that an unknown force can repair things for you?
 Pardon all the time that you've thrown into your pale gray garden
 If the ship will never come, you gotta move along
 Even a bird would want a taste of dirt from abyssal dark
 The prick of a feather could make a kingdom burn
 And the bloodshed start, the falling apart
 Made me a shadow in the shape of wonder, the waves of black
 If she's going under, I can hold my breath
 'Til the sky comes back or drown like a rat (rat, rat, rat)
 Ooh, he's a rat (he's a rat, he's a rat, he's a rat)
