lyrics

Poor searcher, where'd you go?
To a comfort we all know?
Passed out and hearing sounds
About the Moon, howling friends and cold ground?

And poor searcher, why do you hide?
Just run a mile downtown and I'll smile.
And I'll greet you, I'll meet you.
Stay a while, yeah, we need you.

Frozen nights and fireflies
Are just a haunt of what I despise.
But in a dream I heard the call
So I ran on home, so I pinched my skin.

I kept on waking up at six o'clock
Just doin' what I do.
I pay my bills to buy my shoes to buy my home
And never feel the cold.

Passed out upon the floor
In the warmth is what we're for.
Them roamin', fire-tendin' kids will learn.
They'll sleep tonight under sky
Oh, so bright (but cold, I spy...).
But from a living room I hear them, too,
Gone howling at the Moon.
