[Intro]
Bong... bong...
The night goes thin
Bong... bong...
They’re coming in
[Verse 1]
Tonight’s the dark moon
No joke, no dream
They move through the pines
Like a broken scream
Cold paws on gravel
Eyes in the black
You hear your name
Then they’re on your back
[Pre-Chorus]
Run if you can
Lock every door
They smell your fear
They want it more
One bad step
And you’re gone
The moon comes up
And the pack rides on
[Chorus]
Dark moon rises
Dark moon rises
They tear the night apart
Dark moon rises
Dark moon rises
Run for your heart
(Hey!)
[Verse 2]
Not some furry tale
Not some movie lie
They don’t wink and grin
They don’t pass you by
They hunt the wanderer
They hunt the lost
They leave a trail
Where the brave got crossed
[Pre-Chorus]
Run if you can
Don’t look back
Hear them laugh
On the railroad track
One bad step
And you’re done
The moon comes up
And the pack has won
[Chorus]
Dark moon rises
Dark moon rises
They tear the night apart
Dark moon rises
Dark moon rises
Run for your heart
(Hey!)
[Bridge]
Bells ring hard
Through the bone-white trees
One more howl
And you drop to your knees
Pray all you want
Pray all you like
When the dark moon glows
They strike tonight
[Final Chorus]
Dark moon rises
Dark moon rises
They tear the night apart
Dark moon rises
Dark moon rises
Run for your heart
Dark moon rises
Dark moon rises
They tear the night apart
Dark moon rises
Dark moon rises
Run for your heart
(Hey! Hey!)
