Moth to the Moonlight - Moth Lyrics

Emblazoned in my memory
That lunch at the diner
Six years old, I remembered we all die
And I asked my father
"What's the point"
He couldn't give me a straight answer
I'm always reaching for some light
My hand stopped by the glass I didn't see
And nothing ever seems to make sense
Why does this have to be
So hard
No one knows
Don't you see me trying
Don't you see me trying
Don't you see me trying
Don't you see me trying
I wonder why I struggle each day
To reach some sort of light I'll never have
I have a real problem with the way
Things are set up
But everyone seems to accept it
So I'll go along
Don't you see me dying
Don't you see me dying
Don't you see me dying
Don't you see me dying
I want the glow back
The effervescent feeling of a smile
Like yours when you're around others
Please give me
Some permanent light
Set me on fire
