Full Moon Lyrics

One, two, three, four

Doctor, doctor, get here quick
My soul is lost, my mind is sick
And I need a moment, out of the now
Lost in illusion, I milk the sacred cow
It's a battle I can't win
Like a full moon on the wane

So many voices in my brain
The sound is driving me insane
Sometimes, I rule the world, I'm king for a day
Some kind of fantasy is never far away
Don't you know that it's a sin?
Like a full moon on the wane

But I love that I could feel so sweet, as you
Lie in the darkness, search through the window
Feeling the earth beneath my feet, it's you, oh

A million voices in my head
Did you hear what I just said?
Don't need no medication, no bed of nails
Don't want no mild sedation to keep mе on the rails
It's a battle I can't win
Like a full moon on thе wane
But I love that I could feel so sweet, as you
Lie in the darkness, search through the window
Feeling the earth beneath my feet, it's you, oh

Doctor, doctor, get here quick
My soul is lost, my mind is sick
And I need a moment, out of the now
Lost in illusion, I milk the sacred cow
It's a battle I can't win
Like a full moon on the wane
Yeah, the wane
Yeah, the wane
