Fingernail Moon

Underneath the fingernail moon
Underneath the fingernail moon
I was feeling like, it was almost funny
Small towns around, lighting up the sky
Like a dozen dealers on opening night
Without the lights I can see the stars
Without the voices I can hear the words
What did you mean when I heard you say
That a whisper is louder than a scream?
Well I wonder which one is the mayor’s daughter?
What was she thinking of, would her daddy approve?
And you can’t keep a secret from the minister’s son
Cause they’ll write your name on the water tower
Without the lights I can see the stars
Without the voices I can hear the words
What did you mean when I heard you say
That a whisper is louder than a scream?
When the world around is closing in
And things don’t seem right
It takes looking out a window
Yeah, underneath a fingernail moon
I was feeling like it was almost funny
I was feeling like it was almost funny
