Against the Moonlight (For Elian)

A tired boy walks with his tired eyes
There's nothing left in this wasteland
He reaches for a hand but he's still not sure
If that's really the nice thing to do

He risked it all and in return
He just got scars

Fighting against the moonlight every night
Torturing himself with each breath taken
Cause he couldn't even do one thing right
And the air in his lungs is now breaking

A tired man walks with his tired eyes
No hope in a world of emptiness
But he could see the stars in the stare of someone new
His worst mistake was falling in love again

The scars were cured for just a glimpse
Before they started bleeding

Fighting against the moonlight every night
Torturing himself with each breath taken
Cause he couldn't even do one thing right
And the air in his lungs is now breaking
Like glass it's cutting him down
A deadly weapon in his heart
He tries to stay alive and at once be alright
But the air in his lungs is now breaking

He wants to go back to his boyhood
Back when he really felt like home
Instead, he's laying on the floor
Crying, thinking that everything when wrong

Fighting against the moonlight every night
Torturing himself with each breath taken
Cause he couldn't even do one thing right
And the air in his lungs is now breaking
Like glass it's cutting him down
A deadly weapon in his heart
He tries to stay alive and at once be alright
But the air in his lungs is now breaking

Fighting against the sunlight every day
Always torturing himself
Doing everything he could
Just to be hurt once again

And he's fighting against the sea
And every monster inside of it
Every little step he takes
Ends up with him falling
Because the air in his lungs in now breaking
The air in his lungs is now breaking

He's just a man
