The Blood Moon

We're watching a vampire ray
Spotlight the tracks on the J
Like two day old balloons
Who fell from the blood moon
You're stuffing your pockets with bread
But it isn't your face that's bright red
In our free living room
Beneath the glow of the blood moon tonight
We didn't know
We didn't know much yet

We were playing slow
We were playing hard to get
But it was plain as cheap perfume
That night beneath the blood moon
We needed air to clear our burning lungs
Our thoughts compared
Just told in different tongues
We were lucky not immune
Underneath the red glow of the blood moon
Under the blood moon

We walked with the train on our thoughts
The summer we never got caught
Like two wolves from a cartoon
No one knew but the blood moon
We pulled into town on worn treads
Mistook every floor for a bed
We sang loud, out of tune
Beneath the light of the blood moon
And left the big things all unsaid
To watch the skyline glowing red

We didn't know
We didn't know much yet
We were playing slow
We were playing hard to get
But it was plain as cheap perfume
That night beneath the blood moon
We needed air to clear our burning lungs
Our thoughts compared
Just told in different tongues
We were lucky not immune

Underneath the red glow of the blood moon
Under the blood moon
The blood moon
I just wanna know you're there
I just wanna know
I just wanna know
