Dead Moon

Lyrics

D.O.A.

Into dark waters flow

Bad dreams of long ago

Children who never knew

What doors would open to

Flights taking weary souls

Life shakes of bitter cold

Love tears on golden shores

Teenaged, no more

[Chorus]

What made you take the trip

How could you go so quick

Out through the open door

I wish I'd loved you more

D - O - A

Pure as the driven snow

Innocence now quickly goes

Hard pressed between the folds

Inside the overcoat

Warm hearts and homeless bound

Beware the city sound

Lying there below the street

Broken, hard and beat... yeah

[Chorus]

In cries of angels fall

In time you hear them all

Each face a deeper down

Each heard a highway sound

Bound for the twilight flash

In tears the blinding match

A moments flame now cold

I knew her long ago

[Chorus]
