    Story Behind the Song
    Written in half an hour in the fall of 1995...
    Simple things can sometimes make you feel very
    alone in this world...
    Recorded with the full band for "Life/Death" in 1997.
    This unreleased acoustic version was recorded live at Ridgeway's
    in Clemson, SC on May 6, 1999. Special thanks to Niel Brooks.

    Lyrics
    Half Moon

    Tell me
    You gotta go and so you're leaving me alone like all the rest
    When I needed you
    You packed up all your bags and took a train out west
    And there's fire in the heavens
    But I can't tell if God is happy or hurt
    He's just like me I guess
    Looking for a flower under all this dirt

    And it's the losing of one thing
    Holding hands out in harmony
    And I'm looking for something
    But I lost it inside of me

    Some nights
    I feel like jumping off the world to see how far I'll fall
    And no words
    That you could say could mean anything to me at all
    No I did not expect you to care
    But somehow I thought you'd always be there
    With the night shining through your room
    And one candle to hold back the gloom

    And it's the nature of nothing
    And the science of anything
    Try to hold onto something
    As you let go of everything

    And there's a half moon under a whole sky
    And I'm so tired I wanna lay down and die
    I wanna be a star in a young girl's eye
    I'm a half moon in a whole sky
