There is a moon
Hanging over the window tonight
And I feel it is soon
Someone will come to make it right
Trapped inside walls
Of my own doing, I hide
It has been a long fall
My tears of loneliness, long dried
The doors are unlocked
I could walk out I suppose
But what lies around the block
No one knows, no one knows
I hear the footsteps
I cringe even as they pass my door
I have been here forever
Never knowing what will come forth
There is a moon
Hanging over the window tonight
And I hope it is soon
Someone will convince me to fight
