Moth's Wings Lyrics

[00:40.78] Dear friend, as you know
[00:44.75] Your flowers are withering
[00:48.99] Your mother's gone insane
[00:53.22] Your leaves have drifted away
[00:56.99] But the clouds are clearing up
[01:00.73] And I've come reveling
[01:04.78] Burning incandescently
[01:08.65] Like a bastard on the burning sea
[01:12.04] You're just like your father
[01:15.88] Buried deep under the water
[01:19.67] You're resting on your laurels
[01:24.06] And stepping on my toes
[01:28.06] Whose side are you on?
[01:31.47] What side is this anyway?
[01:35.46] Put down your sword and crown
[01:40.87] Come lay with me on the ground
[01:43.73] You come beating like moth's wings
[01:49.19] Spastic and violently
[01:52.53] Whipping me into a storm
[01:56.96] Shaking me down to the core
[02:00.34] But you run away from me
[02:04.38] And you left me shimmering
[02:08.24] Like diamond wedding rings
[02:12.13] Spinning dizzily down on the floor
[02:15.54] You're just like your father
[02:19.50] Buried deep under the water
[02:23.48] You're resting on your laurels
[02:27.67] And stepping on my toes
[02:31.23] Whose side are you on?
[02:34.94] What side is this anyway?
[02:39.12] Put down your sword and crown
[02:44.21] Come lay with me on the ground
[02:48.55]
[03:34.90] You're just like your father
[03:38.61] Buried deep under the water
[03:42.64] You're resting on your laurels
[03:47.08] And stepping on my toes
[03:50.95] Whose side are you on?
[03:54.62] What side is this anyway?
[03:58.72] Put down your sword and crown
[04:04.08] Come lay with me on the ground
[04:09.49]
