American Football – Bad Moons Lyrics

Bad Moons Lyrics by American Football

Surprise
I’m just two little boys in a trench coat with plastic knives
I’m scared and I don’t want to grow up
I only feel alive at night
During the day, I cover my eyes

Surprise
I’ve been so many boys in this trench coat
Ask my ex-wife
She met Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hide
I know, I know, I know that should be a “Y”
But none of my “whys” ever get answered

Under bad moons
I’m a bad bone
I’ve got some bad news
I only feel alive when I’m alone

I lost my way in the dark
Precious time
My moral line
I lost everything in the dark
Friends for life
A wilted wife
And every last one of my sharp knives

I lost my mind in the dark
I told all my lies in the dark
I poured my drinks in the dark
I explored new kinks in the dark
I found every vein in the dark
I hid my shame in the dark
I got turned on in the dark
I was so far gone in the dark
I bit my tongue in the dark
I collapsed a lung in the dark
I held my breath in the dark
And I welcomed death in the dark
I slit my wrists in the dark
I didn’t exist in the dark
Until I found you in the dark
