lyrics

The Moon Was Gone

For the holes in my new shoes
I was singing
For the long gone lovesick blues
I was crying
For the homeless and their dreams
I was thinking
Of the teachers and their rules
About the kids with no folks
I was dreaming
Of what the future might hold

Nobody was listening so I went back home
I got lost along the way I was waiting alone

Nobody was listening so I went back home
The same stars were shining but the moon was gone
The moon was gone

For the dirty and the dead broke
I was singing
Of « forevers and almosts »
I was jealous
Of the handsomes and the means
But I was praying
For the « it’s not what it seems »
About the time he left home
I was dreaming
Of them holding me in their arms

Nobody was listening so I went back home
I got lost along the way I was waiting alone
Nobody was listening so i went back home
The same stars were shining but the moon was gone
The moon was gone

RVIVR is like antidepressants for me. i just cant fucking feel anything but stoked when I listen to any of their songs. so triumphant. Guitar hooks for days, catchy choruses, amazing harmonies, everything that makes a perfect pop punk record. Mickie Rat
