i moonwalk, halo skewed and shredded.
sleep talk, mouth twisted, heart burning.
i am not an astronaut or an angel
or a small child- not anymore.
i used to be ethereal with stars in my eyes.
i used to be young and full of promise.
(promise me you see the gold
promise me you won't go blind)
i fall forward, my face buried in imagination,
i haul the sword, to cut this heart in half.
i'm not a soldier, or a courtier
or whole, i never was.
but i used to be ethereal.
oh!
i used to be, i used to be, i used to be...
