[Verse 1]
Born on the river side
Memphis in my bones
Mama said, boy, you’re strange
You ain’t ever been alone
Moon in my left hand
Salt in my right
I hear the water call my name
When I close my eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
But the dark gets loud
Inside my chest
I hold my breath
I hold my breath
If I run too fast
I fall too hard
Still I can’t stop
Still I can’t stop
[Chorus]
Moon hunter, take me home
Ocean god, don’t let me go
Moon hunter, take me home
I’m shaking, but I still glow
(Still I glow)
I’m shaking, but I still glow
[Verse 2]
Shadow on my ceiling
Knocking at the door
I wear a brave face
Then I want it all to fall
Anxiety like thunder
Restless in my skin
Depression pulls the blankets tight
And drags me back again
[Pre-Chorus]
But the dark gets loud
Inside my chest
I hold my breath
I hold my breath
If I run too fast
I fall too hard
Still I can’t stop
Still I can’t stop
[Chorus]
Moon hunter, take me home
Ocean god, don’t let me go
Moon hunter, take me home
I’m shaking, but I still glow
(Still I glow)
I’m shaking, but I still glow
[Bridge]
If I sink, I’ll learn the deep
If I break, don’t let me sleep
I’ve got storms in my blood
And the tide in my teeth
Say my name like a spell
Pull me back from the edge
I was born in the dark
But I won’t be its child
[Final Chorus]
Moon hunter, take me home
Ocean god, don’t let me go
Moon hunter, take me home
I’m shaking, but I still glow
(Still I glow)
I’m shaking, but I still glow
Moon hunter, hear my call
Ocean god, I want it all
Moon hunter, hear my call
I rise up when I almost fall
(Almost fall)
I rise up when I almost fall
