Chasing the Moon

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 4 months ago 1 min read

[Verse]

The wound in your heart is a murmur

Within a hidden dance

It calls out through the night

"Please give me a second chance"

So , baby, follow it down

Where the moonlight bends

To the place where questions never end

[Prechorus]

Girl, Where are you going?

Where do you flee?

What do you need from me?

[Chorus]

There’s no weapon more dangerous

No sword so sharp

Then the wound that keeps bleeding inside your heart

It writes its own story

It sings its own tune

And drags you out windows

Chasing the moon

[Verse 2]

Stairways creak under the weight of dreams

And your footsteps echo in the in-between

You chase the dreams in your diary

The ink-stained cries

But the answers dissolve in your wounded sighs

[Chorus]

There’s no weapon more dangerous

No sword so sharp

Then the wound that keeps bleeding inside your heart

It writes its own story

It sings its own tune

And drags you out windows

Chasing the moon

[Bridge]

Can you intervene?

Can you make it still?

Or does it own you?

Does it bend your will?

Questions are scars

And scars are chains

The wound is a poet

Singing out it's pain

[Chorus]

There’s no weapon more dangerous

No sword so sharp

Then the wound that keeps bleeding inside your heart

It writes its own story

It sings its own tune

And drags you out windows

Chasing the moon

Chasing the moon
