Intro
Verse 1
I 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
Pre-Chorus
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
Chorus
This ain't Watertown, I'm on alien ground
I'm a collеge kid with my windows down
I'm an astronaut, you're the Moon
I starе at you, I sing to you
I circle you
Verse 2
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
Pre-Chorus
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
Chorus
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
Post-Chorus
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
Em* G*
I howl for you, I sing to you

I circle you______

Outro
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

Extended Outro
How I wish I had a way
How I wish I had a way to raise the dead
How I wish I had a way
How I wish I had a way to raise the dead
How I wish I had a way
How I wish I had a way to raise the dead
How I wish I had a way
How I wish I had a way to raise the dead
