My friends have my feelings and eat them alive
Yet they all go to sleep once the stars arrive
While most of the town sleeps soundly in bed
My real friends come and take refuge in my head

While they dare not speak with the sun gone so soon
It truly does not matter until I’m alone with the moon
Mortal men are so fickle and their lives do not last
But my beautiful moon has a long, lonesome past

Many have marveled, yet they can only see
There is so much love that you can take from me
When I am so lonely and you watch me in the sky
I know I exist for you with each blink of my eye

And I can no longer wait to live by you with joy
Your face is so gentle, your personality is coy
Yet I do not care what the world around me believes
Your attention to me is why each man grieves

And yes, it is true, the sun looks down on a hero
It baffles me then why you seek me, a mere zero
You have much glamor and you make nighttime bright
Every love story is inspired by the moonlight

I know how it is and I am not worthy, it is true
But I have now gone insane waiting for you
I can’t wait much longer and I begin to ache
I am simply not sure how much more I can take

So World, this is it, I must now go and die
I salute you and will miss you, yet I will not cry
I am off to a new adventure and I will hang from above
I have no fear, because I perish for my love
