Off on the Moons Songtext
von Flashlight Faces

Left unlocked, you are here late
Have a drink and play this tape
Chalkboard shows you where we are
On the moons of a red star

Got here at dusk, and we did the song
Seconds in, already gone
Used the map we made last year
Left you a copy somewhere here

Off on the moons
But we′ll call you soon

Thanks for words you taught to say
Thanks for money paid each day
Couldn't wait, we called your phone
Send a flash when you get goin′


Took the globe, compasses and gloves
Bottles of air to breathe above
Battery wires, and light bulbs too
All the songs you used to do

Off on the moons
But we'll call you soon

Lost the way in heavy clouds
We did not all make it out
Straight into the silver sea
Cities made of crawling trees

Feel the ground, softer than before
Shining shores, houses with no doors
Found a place to go to sleep
All the wings wrapped round your feet

Off on the moons
But we'll call you soon
