Lyrics
Find another songI look exhausted, oh stiff and awkward on the outside of the moment
It's not my first time bitter drunk on a red carpet
Or my first time losing, and it won't be my last
You said ignore it
Oh, California's so much more than some award show
You're no more important than an insect on a window
They'll see you climbing but won't care until you get close
You said some people don't know why they're wolves
They just howl for the sound of it
Some will never know they're beautiful
Until the crowd points it out for them
But I see you through a camera flash
I look back and you laugh and this is hard
But I feel less far
This ain't Watertown
I'm on alien ground
I'm a college kid
With my windows down
I'm an astronaut
You're the moon
I stare at you
I sing to you
I circle you
Rain on a steel roof, leaks through the ceiling
Hits the patrons in the ballroom
You said "oh look babe, even God is trying to warn you
All this ain't for you"
But I cling to my seat
I guess some people don't know why they're wolves
They just howl for the sound of it
Some will never know they're beautiful
Until the crowd points it out for them
But I see you through a camera flash
I look back and you laugh and this is hard
But I feel less far
This ain't Watertown
I'm on alien ground
I'm a college kid
With my windows down
I'm an astronaut
You're the moon
I stare at you
I sing to you
And I clutch my cloth
And I bite my tongue
I'm an aging wolf
Who lost the taste for blood
Even anxious pups need the moon
I howl for you
I sing to you
I circle you
I circle you
I circle you
If I'm gonna lose you either way
If I'm gonna lose you either way
If I'm gonna lose you either way
If I'm gonna lose you either way
