Moon song

There's a big moon rising
like a pale horse in the swamp
There's a dead moon rising
Like the bones of those I've loved

There's a new moon rising
In the ashes of the heavens above

There's sad moon rising
Saying what it needs to say
About the sun and its horizon
At the closing of the day

There's a faint star and its sparkling
In the crystal clear dark night
Far from all the fighting
Of the tribes of wrong and right
