The moon patterns graffiti outside my window

It calls me out, beckons me to go

To dance below the star streaked sky

to swim in the waters of light

But no, I won't go

.

There's a song whispering through the trees

A beautiful rush, and it's me they tease

Beckoning with a song of hope and love

Created for those who need it, lifting all to the heavens above

I won't go, no

.

There's so much going on tonight

Happening for me, begging me to be free, gie up the fight.

I want to feel, I want just a taste

To break free from this straight, but it's all a waste

No, I won't go.

.

I shut the window, close myself off to it, turn away

I can't see it, can't hear it, I wait for the new day

I'll hide myself in the crowds, no one will see

The pain ever unreleased, the other side of me

Because no, I won't go

.
