I used to fear the darkness when I was a child
Hiding in the shadows lay the devil with his mind
Wicked world outside my door would keep me up at night
Livin' by moonlight
Daddy taught fear the Lord above
Do your dealings by the day under the safety of the sun
But I've been livin' by moonlight
Wishin' on stars
We're in the midnight
Hidin' our scars
Sippin' on poison
Breathin' in fire
Slowly killing myself
Just to feel alive
Honky-tonk goblins and barroom ghouls
Neon vampires sitting on barstools
The wrong side of the tracks and it might bring wild out of coy
Turned into monsters when they close out at four
Sirens sing "Give me just one night"
Tapping on my door with a green glass pipe
Livin' by moonlight
Wishin' on stars
We're in the midnight
Hidin' our scars
Sippin' on poison
Breathin' in fire
Slowly killing ourselves
Just to feel alive
Livin' by moonlight
Wishin' on stars
Cursin' the midnight
Hatin' the dark
Sippin' on poison
Breathin' in fire
Slowly killing myself
Just to feel alive
Livin' by moonlight
Wishin' on stars
Livin' by moonlight
Sippin' on poison
Breathin' in fire
Slowly killing myself
Slowly killing myself
Just to feel alive
