Rusted root moon lyrics

We have not traveled very far

We have not traveled very far

For in the circle I see

and in the fire will be a dying sun



I swear I saw the moon move

glide across the sky 

with a star at it’s side

it’s crescent shape 

is out tonight 

with opal shadow hiding by

and I swear I saw the moon move



I’m singing about 

some kind of pain

sits outside 

from where the fire burns

All of you huddled in the earth

I am touching the surface, I am



Let me bend into the fire

let it dry my skin

it waits to be part of the fire

let the healing begin

let the healing begin



I am sifting through glass chards 

of wisdom pains

I am tearing them out one by one

one by one

They’ve been buried so long 

I had chose to ignore them

but slowly they surface 

and cut through my skin



I swear on my conscience/

If you tell me twice my good Lord 

I will suffer your will again

I swear I’ll move through this/ 

If you tell me twice my good Lord 

I will suffer your will again

Suffer your will again

if you tell me twice my good Lord

Suffer your will again

if you tell me twice my good Lord



For in the circle I see

and in the fire will be a dying sun

For in the circle I see

and in the fire will be a dying sun



If you tell me twice my good lord

Never suffer your will again

If you tell me twice my good lord

Never suffer your will again



And I swear I saw the moon move

glide across the sky 

with the stars all in line

I’m standing here 

watching the fire grow

As everyone sees it 

and cuts through their own

And I swear I saw 

the moon move
