Lyrics
The sun shines down on me
Glistening upon the sea
Just when you expect it least
It's a crooked moon rising in the East
Oh it's a crooked moon
Trying to steal my heart
It's a crooked moon
Lying from the start
It's a crooked moon
Tearing my world apart
People just want to be free
They put all their faith in liberty
But all my life I've seen
A crooked moon rising on their dreams
Oh it's a crooked moon
Trying to steal their hearts
It's a crooked moon
Lying from the start
It's a crooked moon
Tearing their world apart
There are days that I'm amazed
At the reluctance of the sun to shine
How good men faced with evil
Refuse to open up their eyes
And how the bitter cold will linger
Long after winter's passed
But the soul retains its strength
Even after all hope is gone at last
We're walking in dangerous times
To the rhythm of history's rhymes
Dark statues soaked in red
Lit by a crooked moon hanging over head
Oh it's a crooked moon
Trying to steal our hearts
It's a crooked moon
Lying from the start
It's a crooked moon
Tearing our world apart
