Colours of the Moon

Who can I blame who can I fight It's not my fault but noone else can take the weight And take control And take it all away And make it all ok And carry me away No colour in the day to day Like looking outwards from inside a burned out house Through the dark glass blackened by smoke And the love that lived inside Replaced by ash If I could walk under a different sky Bathe in the colour of the moon If I could dip into The pool where we all go down to drink I'd be ok for a while It grows inside me while I sleep Something angry running deep inside my blood Straining my heart I'm unaware And I can only see it when I see it in your eyes And when I walk under a different sky Bathe in the colour of the moon When I dip into The pool where we all go down to drink I'll be ok

Listen to this song Notes Loosely based on part of Stephen King's novel 'Lisey's Story'. Lisey's husband has the ability to shift himself into a parallel world, where he can rejuvenate and heal himself in the 'pool where we all go down to drink'. We all need to find some source in our lives that we can go to and draw energy to face the draining realities of our day to day lives, whether it's a place, a person, or something you do. Alcohol and TV numb the reality, but don't rejuvenate us, but things like surfing, creating art or making music, fill us up with life again.
