Throwing Stones at the Moon
I ran before I could walk,
Jumped before I could fall.
You know I only wanted to talk,
that was all.
I've been trying to rewind,
I'll be somebody soon,
but I'm lost in this hole in my mind
throwing stones at the moon.
And if we don't die when the winter comes
and all the people buy automatic guns
and if we don't die in the middle of the night
It'll be alright.
I guess that I should have tried to do a little bit more.
I guess that I should have lied to you.
But if we don't die when the winter comes
and all the people buy automatic guns
and if we don't die in the middle of the night
And if we don't die when the winter comes
and all the people buy automatic guns
and if we don't die in the middle of the night
It'll be alright.
Outro
Tiny burning lights up there in the sky,
just like every one of us,
they will one day die.
It's better to fade away than to burn out.
At least you get to see how it all turns out.
Tiny burning lights up there in the sky,
just like every one of us, they will one day die.
It's better to fade away than to burn out.
At least you get to see how it all turns out.
And if there's lessons I should have learnt,
I haven't learnt them yet.
And if the whole world's gonna get burnt,
better place your bets.
Jumped before I could fall.
You know I only wanted to talk,
that was all.
I've been trying to rewind,
I'll be somebody soon,
but I'm lost in this hole in my mind
throwing stones at the moon.
And if we don't die when the winter comes
and all the people buy automatic guns
and if we don't die in the middle of the night
It'll be alright.
I guess that I should have tried to do a little bit more.
I guess that I should have lied to you.
But if we don't die when the winter comes
and all the people buy automatic guns
and if we don't die in the middle of the night
And if we don't die when the winter comes
and all the people buy automatic guns
and if we don't die in the middle of the night
It'll be alright.
