songs for my moots, pt.3

god, this is for one of my favourite moots and the one person I feel I can reach out to any time. @irateturtles ilysm. ur heart is gold. based off of the prompt :

also, I'm 100% sure I was possessed by a gay cowboy while singing this so. southern sirius black, anyone?

lyrics :

[i am not from south america. i don't even come from america! why do i sound like a cowboy]

i'm feelin' moony, right down to my rotten core like somethin' that you know is there but don't believe moony, like a dog at your front door, waitin' in the rain for you to feel

oh the way that you look tonight, the moon in your starry eyes i can't help, but feel some typa way the way your laugh is flatterin', i drink it in like the wine we sip and i can't look away

im feelin' moony, like a drunk boy on the roof prayin' his loony smile don't reveal

how he feel inside, for a boy who thinks he's kind who believes, who believes

oh my poor, dyin' beast of burden, i love you like the fleas on your back like the roll-in, swept up heat of summer, aching at your weary bones it's time to come home

my rabid, unloved child, who done told you the land won't hold you strong who you love, and who you kiss, don't matter much in all of this, you just gotta stick around

and stay moony, like a little teenage crush like something that you know time will heal moony, like a bedpost in the wind stick around the cyclone when it hits

laugh out loud and sing and bring everything to its knees little man, hand of god

hand in hand, oh, johnny cash, can't hold a dime to what we have i love you, i do

my poor, dyin' beast of burden, i love you like the fleas on your back like the roll-in, swept up heat of summer, aching at your weary bones please come home

my rabid, unloved child, who told me that the land won't hold me strong who i love, and who you kiss, don't matter much in all of this, i just gotta stick around and find out

all my guilt, all my love everything i have won't save me

my kind-ness will not purify me my love will not save my kindness won't bring you back

im feelin' moony, right here with a half-pint glass sitting at your grave like a dog thinkin' bout your smile, the way you'd crack a half-moon joke every once in a blue moon - tonight

i need you, i want you, i cant live without you but i know you're gone.

i swear, if i had proper equipment, i'd be a singer

I tried to use Spotify but my account has been deleted so I needed to make a new one but instead of asking what type of music I liked, it asked what I didn't like and the only option was country.

Country songs about women killing their shitty husbands and janky RPG Maker horror games with abused little girl protagonists where the Good Ending route culminates in killing her shitty father may not be the same species of media, but you could probably make a solid argument that they're close cousins.
