The Moon-Atomic

It’s like the day has turned to rust
Like every dream’s been sealed shut
Like every door has closed before we’ve gotten out
As bullets rip the air in two from house to house
We are all that we are
So terribly sorry
The moon you felt
It has no side
That’s dark like hell
Or safe from light
Just blown apart
By wind from stars
With white dust tides
To pull on our arms
I see the crowds, they’re giving in For some, they’re better off that day
The bombs go off, the shells they’re glowing red at first
The less there is to feel each night upon the earth
We are all that we are
So terribly sorry
The moon you felt
It has no side
That’s dark like hell
Or safe from light
Just blown apart
By wind from stars
With white dust tides
To pull on our arms
