Shooting at the Moon Songtext
von Mariel Buckley

I′ve played in motel bars
Dingy lounges with dirty floors
Queen of the one-star room

Every night, it seems I am living someone else's dream
Can I have one too?
Every night I lay on flowered sheets
And I think of you

I wanna be the underdog
Up against the wind
Shooting at the moon
Knowing if I bring it down, it′ll rise again

I've dressed in fancy clothes
Hung out where all the money goes
But the talk, it is cheap


They only tell you what they think you're gonna wanna hear
I wanna hear the truth
I don′t mind getting scraps
The more I took, the less I had
I had it all with you
I will trade it all now if I could through that motel room with a view

And to be the underdog
Up against the wind
Shooting at the moon
Knowing if I bring it down, it′ll rise again

I hear the echo bouncing off the walls
It sounds a lot like me
All the other voices sound so sweet
But honey, they don't know
Who I used to be

I wanna be the underdog
Up against the wind
Shooting at the moon
Knowing if I bring it down, it′ll rise again

I wanna be the underdog
Up against the wind
Shooting at the moon
Knowing if I bring it down that, it'll rise again
