A Beginner's Guide to Destroying the Moon
Foster The People

I can't blame you, and I can't save you

But I will try

For you and I, for you and I

I won't find out all the dirty little things that you've done

But I will try

I—I'm coming for you giants and you liars and your chariots of fire

You charmers with your anecdotes have started to show your true colors

Now I'm staring at the moon wondering why the bottom fell out

I've been searching for answers and there's questions I've found

Open your eyes and share this burden somehow

Are you ready to drink

Or are you waiting to drown?

I would break you

Before I let you fall into the blind

For you and I, for you and I

I will breathe in all the truth I can stomach

If it keeps you alive

We've changed the dreamers and the preachers and the wise men on the hill

To concrete stepping smilers terrified to lose their power and control

Yeah we've been crying for a leader to speak like the old prophets

The blood of the forgotten wasn't spilled without a purpose, or was it?

Now I'm staring at the moon wondering why the bottom fell out

I've been searching for answers and there's questions I've found

Open your eyes and share this burden somehow

Are you ready to drink

Or are you waiting to drown?

Yeah

Ah—ah

Yeah you'll never be whole, yeah you'll never be whole

Until you lose control

And think freely to smash the wall of apathy

Stop your self-importance and lift the weight off somebody else

Yeah you'll never be whole, yeah you'll never be whole

Until you lose control

And stop drinking the wine that's been dripping

From the lips of the gluttons and envying their bloody teeth

Yeah you'll never be whole, yeah you'll never be whole

Until you lose control
