Anchor Me, Moon

Anchor me, moon

I am ready for you

tie me to you and lead me

through these blues

How do you know

you stay whole even though

there’s just half of you showing

on some lonely old nights

and do you stay dry

and is it lonely lighting the way

for so many of us to see by

and do you get tired

of the spotlight

How do the waves

hear what you have to say

and know just when to stay

and how to say goodbye

and when do you sing

and when are you screaming

do you smile at the things we do

or are you troubled too

and are you confused

can you see through why we do what we do

when you have such a long view

or do you get tired

of being prayed to
