There's nothing special at all about a half moon
Except tonight it's the only light in my room
Feeling maudlin
Armstrong and Aldrin
Have surely paid their dues
Just another commercial airliner gone down
Children and soldiers over that unknown town
Experts in survival
Dead on arrival
On that foreign ground
There's a fireman burning
Years after the fire
It's so down to earth
Oh it's so down to earth
This fear of falling
And there was nothing special at all about the flight path
Just this counterfeit peace and those counterfeit hearts
Here on the edge of time we
See the grief, see the inquiry
Cover up age-old questions asked
No there's nothing special at all about a half moon
Except tonight it's the only light in my room
Unless you count the TV
Knowing of the tragedy
Before the family knows of it's doom
There's a fireman burning
Years after the fire
It's so down to earth
Oh it's so down to earth
This fear of falling
This fear of falling
Just another commercial airliner gone down
