She said look at the moon, It's like a fingernail clipping A slippery light in the cold black sky I gave her my coat, held her close and she cried As the sun came up over the jagged skyline, The silence amplified our beating hearts And I didn't answer when she asked why One life to live Many paths to take One twists and turns and falls away And flowers bloom in brilliant light And fade away into the night So much to lose Or so it seems These idle games and children's dreams How they confound and split the seams inside my mind I just keep moving on into the unknown And I go walking alone near the St. Augustine bell And thinking about you since you went away We used to sit here and watch as the shadows played And if I try real hard, I can remember that sound Ringing out just like a clarion Echoing off of the wall of the dark arcade SongtexteOne life to live Many paths to take One twists and turns and falls away And flowers bloom in brilliant light And fade away into the night So much to lose Or so it seems These idle games and children's dreams How they confound and split the seams inside my mind I just keep moving on into the unknown You know being alone feels like I'm holding my breath I try to be cool, I try to push it down I walk like I know where to go on a Friday night And the city streets are the fangs of a beast Yeah it's always tired, but it never sleeps I cry with the silence, dance with the freaks Come on, I'm getting on into the unknown.
