Underneath the Orphan Moon

In a dusty town down on a dead end street
There's an overgrown house with a roof that leaks
Where the floorboards creaked down the quiet hall
On a winter's night when you left them all

All the times you cried and tried to tell them
Maybe now you're gone they might believe
Maybe now you're gone they'll never find you

But the old ghosts live on
To haunt the hollows of your soul
While you gather up the pieces
Of your heart to make it whole
As the life inside reminds you
You're growing up too soon
It's a slow dance with the devil
Underneath the orphan moon

As the fog rolls in and the train rolls out
A river of anger rushes through the doubt
Bringing back the strength you thought was gone
When you left the place the world went wrong

Woken by the dream where you keep falling
Hoping you can stay awake till dawn
Hoping you can stay awake forever

But the old ghosts live on
To haunt the hollows of your soul
While you gather up the pieces
Of your heart to make it whole
As the life inside reminds you
You're growing up too soon
It's a slow dance with the devil
Underneath the orphan moon

But the old ghosts live on
To haunt the hollows of your soul
While you gather up the pieces
Of your heart to make it whole
As the life inside reminds you
You're growing up too soon
It's a slow dance with the devil
Underneath the orphan moon
