Yes or no? What is truth But a dirty black cloud coming out of the blue? I was wrong I was right I'm a blood moon born in the dead of night Break my bones I don't care All I ever wanted was a body to share Heart's gone cold Brush ran dry Satellite searching for a sign of life Like you Somewhere? Are you there? The tears in your eyes Someday will dry We fight for our lives 'Cause everything's on the line This time Listen close I can't hide I'm a page torn from a broken spine Sun gets low I get high Satellite searching for a sign of life Like you Somewhere? Are you there? The tears in your eyes Someday will dry We fight for our lives 'Cause everything's on the line This time Are you there? Are you there? The tears in your eyes Someday will dry We fight for our lives 'Cause everything's on the line This time The tears in your eyes Someday will dry We fight for our lives 'Cause everything's on the line Yes or no? What is truth But a dirty black cloud coming out of the blue I was wrong I was right I'm a blood moon born in the dead of night
