Cursive - The Sun and Moon lyrics

rate me

You’re like the sun and I’m the moon

A mirror reflection of your magnitude

A replicate cast across the room

A remedy for your solitude

Cause you are my sun and I’m your moon

I am the one without a name

You are the glue I’m bonded to you

I can see through you like a two-way mirror

No man’s tried the trials you’ve been through

I see behind your eyes the horror that haunts you

Hanging over your shoulder (x2)

Who’s that misfit sitting in the corner?

Things that kid did are cloistered like a coma

Hanging over your shoulder (x2)

My flesh and blood, it can’t be true

You’re everything I could never be

I was no one, now I’m two

You’re actually here acknowledging

That I am the weak, that makes us complete

It sure has been a lover’s life

Living in these shadows

No, that’s not quite right

It was an illustrious life

Till you eclipsed my luster

Who was there when you dined with Dionysus?

Who’d you think that was nourishing your hubris?

Hanging over your shoulder (x2)

Who was there engorged in Gomorra?

Who’d you think that was dancing in the sulfur?

Hanging over your shoulder

I was .. hanging over your shoulder

Singing in your ear

You’re like the sun and I’m the moon (x2)

Or maybe I’m like the sun and you’re the moon

No, you’re like the sun and I’m the moon
