Scared Of The Moon
Scared Of The Moon

Alone she lays waiting

Surrounded by gloom

Invaded by shadows

Painting the

The light from the window

Cuts through the air

And pins the child lying there

Scared of the moon

She pulls up the covers

And shivers in fright

She hides from the color

That rides on the night

The light through the window

That lights up the sky

And causes her mournful cry

Scared of the moon

There’s nothing wrong

Don’t be bothered they said

It’s just childish fantasies turning your head

No need to worry

It’s really too soon

But there she lies shivering

Scared of the moon

Scared of the moon

Scared of the moon

Scared of the moon

Scared of the moon

The years go by swiftly

And soon childhood ends

But life is still fearful

When evening descends

The fear of a child

Still intrudes the night

Returning on beams of light

Scared of the moon

The feeling of terror

She felt as a youth

Has turned from a fantasy

Into the truth

The moon is the enemy

Twisting her soul

And taking its fearful toll

Scared of the moon

But now there are others who sit in a room

And wait for the sunlight to brighten their gloom

Together they gather

Their lunacy shade

But knowing just why they’re scared

Scared of the moon

Scared of the moon

Scared of the moon

Scared of the moon

Scared of the moon
