Compound eyes reflect the blackened sky
Star dust falls from each beating wing
Adventure by moonlight

Circles dance and snare the prize
Drums beat fast, muffle the cries

Hollow eyes reflect the dogged treasure
Blackened wings lay still
A heated passion by candlelight

Babe with chord in hand, looks to lasso the moon.

Eight legged man undertakes adventure, my skin crawls with him.

Upright and on my feet, but I think I'm misunderstanding.

Check the zipper on your head, your ignorance is showing.

It is my wish to walk this earth as a ghost
To roam this land and never touch the soil

It is my wish to live on this planet
And never be a part of it

You've been having trouble sleeping
Real bad thoughts lead to real bad dreams
Toss and turn, the sand man's creeping
Tear the sheets at the seams

You've been fighting wars in your head
How do you fight things you can't see?
Well your general called and said
"you're not a soldier babe and you never will be"

So put down your gun and get back into bed
The battle is over, at least for just one night
I can't fight with you, those are steps I can't tread
But I'll be here when you get back, "sleep tight"
