Under the Moon
I'm still here..under the moon.
I was just a child but you seemed like so much more.
The way you would approach me and drift across the floor,
I'd see you in the hall and you'd kiss me with a smile.
I never understood it was I even worth your while?
The other kids at school they would hate me and they'd spit.
Cuz I was just a no one to them I wasn't shit.
But you would always hold me and stand there by my side,
We were only 17 we'd be together till we died.
But then it all happened the ever dreadful day.
Somebody tried to rape you and now I'll make him pay.
You pointed him out to me my thoughts began to race.
I took my daddy's 45 and shot him in the fuckin' face!
I did it all for you and though I'm facin' years
I would do the time just to equal all your tears
The last thing that you told me when I left the courtroom
Is that we'd always be together... cuz we're both under the moon.
