Half-moon is keeping my time,
I'm halfway out of my mind.
I called you to tell you to sleep,
called me mom, I said that's me.
'Cause I gave birth to your sheep last night,
took pictures in case of fight.
I couldn't've proved to you it's true,
I have my herd to follow you to the half-moon.
To the half-moon, sun in the sky,
where the sidewalk is a purple light.
Sneakers that are overused,
I'm telling bad jokes and spreading good news.
To the big bears living in the woods,
they'll be there to collect the goods.
Better times and cooler places,
the pool table is making faces at the half-moon.
At the half-moon, and it's for the night,
your cigarette is drawing lines,
and the animals connect the dots,
with cooly dreams and drunken thoughts.
At the half-moon, your eyes lights are out
and no one dares to shout
at the baby bird who flutters by
with just one wing he'll make you cry at the half-moon.
At the half-moon with the daylight fades
and the headlights drive away.
But in the park, the place stays dark,
hear him howl, hear him bark
At the half-moon, and I cannot see.
At the half-moon, and I cannot breathe.
The writing that's on the wall,
it says I tried and I let him fall at the half-moon.
And animals are pretty too,
they'll fuck you up like people do.
I'm halfway out of my mind.
I called you to tell you to sleep,
called me mom, I said that's me.

hi, just like to make a note that i created a thread for Blair Gimma because this thread was originally meant for another band called Blair. didn't know how to sort that out, so i just used her full name instead.
Love this song. Some slight corrections as I hear them:
One two three four

At the halfmoon and it's full tonight and your cigarette is drawing lines, and the animals connect the dots with pulley dreams and drunken thoughts.
