Downstairs Moon

You said there's light beneath the grave
But all I see
Is a moon that misbehaves

You painted silver in the dark
But all your stars had teeth and bark
You told me, "Fall, I'll pull you through"
But gravity belonged to you

You kissed the sky, then left me blind
Your orbit cracked my sense of time
Now every night feels like a theft
A lightless moon is all that's left

Downstairs moon, you lied so sweet
Promised dreams but stole my feet
Spinning low in ruined skies
You shine for others, blur my cries

Downstairs moon, you watched me break
Glowed with calm for your own sake
You're not light, you're just disguise
A hollow glare behind soft lies

Your glow was glass, your warmth a test
I wore your phases on my chest
But now I walk without your tide
Your pull is gone, and so's your pride

Don't wax for me, don't fake the shine
Your cold reflection isn't mine
I see the dark behind your glow
And I'm not coming back below

Downstairs moon, you lied so sweet
Promised dreams but stole my feet
Spinning low in ruined skies
You shine for others, blur my cries

Downstairs moon, you watched me break
Glowed with calm for your own sake
You're not light, you're just disguise
A hollow glare behind soft lies

No more tide, no more trance
I severed gravity from this dance
I float alone, no lunar chain
Your ghostlight won't pull me again

Downstairs moon, fade to gray
Nightcore pulse won't let you stay
You lit my fall, you framed my scars
But I outshine your broken stars

You called it love
But it was tide
Now I drift
On my own side
