You Hung the Moon Lyrics

You sank down from the weight of the crown
That you gave away
Is that what you want?
You fell back home
Beaten, stoned and forgiven... forgiven
The Old Man, he always believed you
But I knew better... I read your letters
So I don’t wanna read about it
I don’t wanna hear about it now
We found you sleeping out on the porch
Like a vagabond
Is that what you want?
You caved in when
you ran out of friends
And your credit was dead
and your wounds wouldn’t mend
Now everything’s laid before you

Milk and honey... blood money
But I don’t wanna think about it
I don’t wanna think about it now
You hung the moon
you lit the stars up sun by sun
I did all I could do
But you were the one
you were the one
I stayed in school
You broke all the girls
and crashed your car
But that don’t matter at all
‘cause you hung the moon
Are you gonna rise?
Are you gonna crawl on the floor?
Cry a little more
Everybody know what you did...
what you did
I’m glad you’re on your own
It’s good you found
your way back home
Call the doctor... call the doctor
The same song in a different key
Is that what you want?
Is that what you want?
You hung the moon
you lit the stars up sun by sun
I did all I could do
But you were the one
you were the one
I stayed in school
You broke all the girls
and crashed your car
But that don’t matter at all
‘cause you hung the moon
Are you gonna rise?
Are you gonna crawl on the floor?
Cry a little more
Everybody know what you did
what you did with the money
