Farther Afield - Gary Shoots the Moon Lyrics

Shy in public eye though he's steeling the affection of the nation and it's children. There's more to explore here for sure, though he implodes as he creates. Forever feeling the cost of conversation is lost to him. He'd be better off weightless, the furthest away from pain.

Collecting all the sounds that surround and at home he feels distant.
(Delivering the subject matter, careful to erase the laughter)
But when he's away how he plays with conversation and listens.
(Check upon velocity, suppressed by curiosity again)

That view through the glass seemingly getting darker as the time goes creeping passed.
Puts his mind to the test.
Mathematically charged, compounded the stress

Opened eyes ingesting as he's leaving.
Painting quickly all that he is seeing.
He leaves the scenes now memories convey.

Escaping all the dreams that keep him grieving. Oblivious and mind now resting easy.
Out beyond that brightly burning belt he's intent on achieving.

Interest and Intent not what they're seeming.
Body catching mind beyond the ceiling.
He'd rather slip softly away from the earths' casted shade.
