[Verse 1] The sun goes down and I come alive The moths come out and I recognize Every one by the beat of their wings The night unfolds and the darkness sings The forest breathes when the light is gone The owl calls out and I carry on Through root and moss and the silver air The moon finds me, knows I’m there [Chorus] I was made for this The quiet and the cold The stars that burn The stories they have told I was made for this The moth, the dark, the dew There is nothing in the daylight That could ever call me through [Verse 2] The candle flame and the circling wings The forest floor and its whisperings I press my hands to the bark of trees And they tell me things the daylight never sees The foxes move through the undergrowth The darkness holds us both No need for warmth, no need for sound Just the turning world and the frozen ground [Bridge — soft, almost a whisper] This is not loneliness This is not loss This is the place Where I have always belonged [Final Chorus] I was made for this The quiet and the cold The stars that burn The stories they have told I was made for this The moth, the dark, the dew There is nothing in the daylight That could ever call me through [Outro] The moon knows my name The moon knows my name The moon knows my name
