Alone she lies waiting,
surrounded by gloom.
Invaded by shadows,
painting the room.
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 light.
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 the 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 a truth.
The moon is the enemy,
twisting her soul
and taking its fearful tone.
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 shared,
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
(Scared..)
