Lyrics The Rutting Moon - Rogue Valley

The Rutting Moon

She said he’s just a friend of mine
A shoulder that I can lean on From time to time
Maybe I’m a jealous guy
But I feel like the harder I try
The less happens
This leaking ship needs mending
Every river leads to its ending
You want to let me down easy
Though it doesn’t seem easy to me
A slow-motion fall from the tall
Buildings to the crowded street
The good times yeah, they’re still good
But the bad times feel worse than they should feel
You want to let me down easy
Our backs on the bedroom floor
We whisper why it’s different
Than the ones we knew before
Spring was innocence and bliss
Summer wild inconsequence
But this is real
The leaves in central park glow like embers
As a clock tower chimes through the dark
You want to let me down easy
But that’s the hardest way I know
A subtle change turns great and strange
Until we’re unidentifiable
The good times yeah, they’re still good
But the bad times feel much worse than they should feel
You want to let me down easy
All my letters you have yet to read
What do you need?
please take it from me October rain the crows are circling, your eyes mystifying
Showing me something you don’t see
You’re going to let me down easy
