Flirting With The Moon

I don't mind
Your pale blue skies
We'll be okay
In deep deep deep space

I'm a beast and a burden
An evolutionary vermin
She's a creature of space
I'm bound to my weight
And my climate is toxic waste

How could a thing like me dare show its face?
I'm low on options she's my one and only saving grace
Put my shot in before the heat death of space
What's there to lose? I've got infinite takes with her

The sun, it sleeps as you rise for the night
The way you glow as you absorb all its light
This gravitational pull, you know it feels oh so right
You make me dizzy how you orbit my mind
I'd like a taste of your atmosphere sometime

I'm pouring sweat, might need a couple more shots
You better bet you look intimidating
With all your craters and curves and rocks
No thoughts head empty woozy off the fumes
You got new courage in stock
You caught me flirting with the moon after dark
Ooh, you caught me flirting with the moon after dark

Might be a bad joke
The knots in my stomach and the nails in my throat
I might be a smoker and a bit of a misanthrope
But I'm holding out hope for her
That maybe she'll take me the way I am
One part asshole, dreamer, and sad little man
With my heart in the sea and my head in the sand
I'm a beached whale not a day old when I first broke the surface
No plan, no shirt, no shoes, no pants, and no service
No clue managing to find where the goal post is
Plastered up posters
Perusing for some grand soul purpose
And my sole worth it shouldn't be procured
From a girl so deserving of worship
I can be emotionally nervous
Bought, bartered, sold, haggled
And scammed at a popsicle stand and repurchased
We're no strangers to being treated worse than the worms
The dirt, the stones and sticks
Between he, him, she, and her
Please refer back to the point where it hurt the most, kids
I'll feel the fiery burn
Of Beelzebub's furnace before I crawl back in the ocean
I suppose that I'll learn by then
And understand just exactly what life on earth is
(Hahaha, oh)

The sun, it sleeps as you rise for the night
The way you glow as you absorb all its light
This gravitational pull, you know it feels oh so right
You make me dizzy how you orbit my mind
I'd like a taste of your atmosphere sometime

I'm pouring sweat, might need a couple more shots
You better bet you look intimidating
With all your craters and curves and rocks
No thoughts head empty woozy off the fumes
You got new courage in stock
You caught me flirting with the moon after dark
Ooh, you caught me flirting with the moon after dark

Baa, baba baba
Baa, baba baba
Baa, baba baba
Baa, baba baba
Baa, baba baba
Baa, baba baba
Baa, baba baba
Baa, baba baba

Give me a moment
A second of your undivided focus
Slip out the back door no, they won't notice
I don't intend to stay long
So I hope and pray to god that you're wrong about impulses

Master to none
We're young in devotion
And fragile in tongue
Whatever may be the motion
We set the low rungs
As we swung from the clothe pins
Aired out in the sun
Might be stung but not broken
Commitment's a gun
When it's constantly smoking
The damage we've done
With the interest we owed them
It's nested in hums
Elixirs and potions
Yes, mantras are fun
But "I love you"'s a slogan
