"Shaky Ground" lyrics

"Shaky Ground"

Moon shines on the end of my street
Moon shines where the demonoids meet

Moon shines on the battlefront town
Moon shines where the buildings burnt down

I can't cry and I don't look back
I can't cry and I don't look back
Back...

Moon shines on the reservoir tide
Moon shines on the silver lake side

Moon shines on the telescope dome
Moon shines on the billionaire's home

I can't cry and I don't look back
I can't cry and I don't look back
Back...

Moon shines on the swingin' white gate
Moon shines while the limousine waits

Moon shines on the rockin' horse head
Moon shines on the sheets of my bed

I can't cry and I don't look back
I can't cry and I don't look back
Back...

I'm just standin' on shaky ground
Ever since you put me down
Standin' on shaky ground
Ever since you put me down
Standin' on shaky ground
Ever since you put me down
Standin' on shaky ground
Ever since you put me down
