Duration: P00H03M09S
Description: This was an older song that i had previously recorded with a different band. While I was happy with that version, it never felt like it was finished. I was really happy with the grandness of the chorus against the sparseness of the verses.

lyrics

on a rooftop in the moonlight
watching stars up in the sky
just shinning there
so I could stare

when the day breaks
and the sun lays upon
my pale skin
delicate and thin
but strengthening

I thought it might take
everything we have
I'm not trying to change the world
just want to keep the world from changing me

on a small street in the city is where I learned to live
rows of our homes concrete and stone
the sun shined and the clouds came
but nothing really changed
I had all that i'd need
I knew not of greed

I thought it might take
everything we have
I'm not trying to change the world
just want to keep the world from changing me
