Moon Drunk (Lyrics in 90's Rock)

 

Intro:

Was driving alone

On an interstate

Met a forest line

At the night so late

The dwindling light

Was turning slate,

The dwindling light

Was turning slate…

 

Chorus:

The night was falling fast,

Getting dark and deep

In my nights of life

I was falling asleep,

With the promise of light

Falling heavy and hard

For all my dreams to keep…

For all my dreams to keep…

 

Verse 1:

I was travelling east

Through the woods of lies;

Was moving fast

With my dreaming eyes.

For my autumn hopes

For a fragile nest,

But I was needing some rest…

But I was needing some rest…

 

Chorus:

The night was falling fast,

Getting dark and deep

In my nights of life

I was falling asleep,

With the promise of light

Falling heavy and hard

For all my dreams to keep…

For all my dreams to keep…

 

Verse 2:

And I took an unknown turn

At the end of green

Met a lunar lawn

In a maddening moon,

With my poetic moon

And my thousand lies

Like the melting ice,

Fading off soon. 

 

Verse 3:

And I stopped my car

To not to chase

My lucid dreams.

I stopped my car.

With my lucid dreams

Going far and far.

 

And I got stuck by

As the moon sets high

Over the large long trees,

With its magical charm

And the glimmering glows

Are no more on a leash,

No more on a leash…

 

Chorus:

The night was falling fast,

Getting dark and deep

In my nights of life

I was falling asleep,

With the promise of light

Falling heavy and hard

For all my dreams to keep…

For all my dreams to keep…

 

Outro:

And I woke up moon drunk

On the very next dawn

On the lovely autumn morn

With all my pains gone sunk…

This lyrics is based on my poem Moon Drunk and it's meant to be sung in the tune and vibe of the 90's Rock in a soothingly poetic and melodious way. It’s still awaiting a music company for human production, but you can listen to this soothingly melodious track, released as sample version in my YouTube channel, The Fallen Poet and in my Instagram handle, poetic_pathos.
