I used to wake and run with the moon

I lived like a rake and a young man

I covered my lovers with flowers and wounds

My laughter the devil would frighten

The sun she would come to beat me back down

But every cruel day had its nightfall

I'd welcome the stars with wine and guitars

Full of fire and forgetful

My body was sharp the dark air clean

And outrage my joyful companion

Whispering women how sweet did they seem

Kneeling for me to command them

Time was like water but I was the sea

I never have noticed it passing

Except for the turning of night into day

And the turning of day into cursing

You look at me now

Don't think I don't know

What all of your eyes are asayin'

Cause you want us to believe

These ravings and lies

They're just tricks his brain's been aplayin'

Lover of women he can't hardly stand

He trembles he's bent and he's broken

I've fallen it's true but I say onto you

Hold your tongues until after I've spoken

I was taking my pride in the pleasures I'd known

I laughed and thought I'd be forgiven

But my laughter turned round

Eyes blazing and said

My friend we're holding a wedding

I buried my face but it spoke once again

The night to the day we're reminding

And now the dark air is like fire on my skin

And even the moonlight is blinding

And now the dark air is like fire on my skin

And even the moonlight is blinding
