Beneath Your Moon

from Beneath Your Moon - Cogtone 005 - 1994

i have come to you for shelter
in your secret hiding place
you can feel the anguish in my heart
see tears form on my face
i come in search of liberty
time off of this stormy sea
of society, cruel society

because things are always changing
i need some time to rearrange things
i need understanding
can i stay to heal my wounds
say my prayers beneath your moon
sleep under your starry skies
cry these tears out of my eyes

thieves visit me frequently
friends have let me down
there are deadly traps around my feet
i feel i am surrounded
i am asking for your mercy
don't know how long i can hold on
and if they find me here
they're gonna to burn this place down to the ground

can i stay to heal my wounds
say my prayers beneath your moon
and sleep under your starry skies
i am asking for your mercy
