Crescent Moon

The girls grew up so quick
You'd hardly know to tell their faces from the neighbors'
And the dogs escaped on that hectic Christmas morn'...
The snow was far too thick to save 'em

And I creak the floorboards
Just to feel like someone's home
But you're still marrow in my bones

That last look upon your face said it all...
You seeped like water through my stone

And I've run out of reasons to feel whole
I'm a crescent moon
'Cause you took a part of me when you went away...

How I learned so violently...
Now I burn so silently
