you pretend to be the moon   infinitely far away   and you're always leaving soon   but what you want, you'll never say      you pretend to be the moon   looking down upon us all   always taking a dim view   feeling cold and blue and small      you've seen your friends and lovers die   the weepy ends, but you don't cry   remember when we'd wave goodbye?   at least I tried      you pretend to be the moon   with another secret face   always only passing through   because you come from outer space      you pretend to be the moon   old and fat and made of stone   but I've seen you in the nude   when you thought you were alone
