lyrics

I track the radar, I study the stars
I look for symbols on fenceposts and meaning in my scars
I listen for whispers, some hazy shred of a dream
I see all these crazy patterns, it’s too dark to make out what they mean

in these times when i can’t see
i find that i am gently led
it’s just me
and the moon
and the tune in my head
in my head

I stumble in shadows, I cower in light
I wallow through hollows, I tumble from heights
This quest is one of danger, I’m afraid to go alone
I’m looking for a stranger who can help to my home

in these times when i can’t find
the trail on which i am to tread
it’s just me
and the moon
and the tune in my head
in my head

I slither through alleyways, I creep along tracks
I don’t recognize this city, I don’t know my way back
I hear screams like gasoline, buildings quiver and moan
I need someone to help me but everybody here is so damn alone

in these times when there is no one
on whom i can depend
it’s just me
and the moon
and the tune in my head
in my head

it’s just me
and the moon
and the tune in my head
in my head
