lyrics

Power of the Moon
(music by Nelson, lyrics by SVT)

Once I thought the world was made of truth and honest preach
Now I’ve drawn conclusion that it’s my way to teach
Now take the moment to reflect and grab your beads
For it’s time to pray, getting pulled in by the heat
Smooth talk is how he pulls you in
Take your money to the preacher’s outstretched hand
Sinner come on, get down on your knees
Take my hand and utter this life saving plea
Don’t you believe, I am the truth
Don’t you see

Can’t get to Heaven unless you pay that toll to me
So bow your head and throw yourself down and rub oil on my feet
Can’t get to Heaven until you pay that toll to me
So bow your head and throw yourself down and rub oil on my feet

Are you scared of what you see and are you filled with fear?
Just come a little closer and let me whisper in your ear
See that girl, see her dance, see her pull you in
You can’t have that, you can’t have this, you will never win
Feel the power of the moon
Pulls you in, like the tide in June
Let me take you forward with this very simple plan
Just listen to me here and take my sweaty hand
Don’t you believe, I am the truth
Don’t you see

(repeat chorus)

He’s filling you with empty words
Tell me will you ever learn?
I’m the one you need to find
Making all your fears subside
