Moon on the Mountain Songtext
von Pythia

You, you were the one that I ran to when I was a child
You, you gave me sunshine and laughter and hope for a while
Always beside me, a shoulder to cry on
But you were a spider, creeping inside of me
Watching my every move, saying you know me well
I learned to fear you and your strange devotional

We grew in hate and despair
Every concealing emotion was spent
Your words were poison as air
And I recoiled from the love that was meant

There was a time when I could have loved you
The moon on the mountain shone only for you
There was a time when I could have loved you
I couldn′t stay true, the moon on the mountain for you


You, you were the thorn in my side, my ribbon of red
You, you said you'd leave me alone but you stayed in my head
Said that you′d kill me if I ever let you down
But you were trading my secrets all over town
Tried to forgive you, to see things from your domain
But you were subtle and ruthless in your cold game

We grew in hate and despair
Every concealing emotion was spent
Your words were poison as air
And I recoiled from the love that was meant

I could not have been more trusting
Oh, I loved you, I could not take it anymore
But like any moon I wax and wane
I'm fickle when I choose to rise into the sky

There was a time when I could have loved you
The moon on the mountain shone only for you
There was a time when I could have loved you
I couldn't stay true, the moon on the mountain for you
There was a time when I could have loved you
The moon on the mountain shone only for you
There was a time when I could have loved you
I couldn′t stay true, the moon on the mountain for you
