Caterpillar Songtext
von Mountains of the Moon

I′m fallin' out
With everythin′ around me now
Losing what I used to be
And I'm over it

They have been to the Moon
I'm just a caterpillar dead in my cocoon
Swept by my mind′s typhoon
And I′m all at sea

And I wish it could be different
Wish there was no dampness here
Oh, we shouldn't have listened
To the angst and the fear


I had it all
Rivers of gold and forests so tall
But I ran my canoe down a waterfall
Started a wildfire

And I wish it could be different
Wish there was no dampness here
Oh, we shouldn′t have listened
To the angst and the fear

I wish it could be different
Wish there was no dampness here
Oh, I shouldn't have listened
To the angst and the fear


Here I sit in silence as it′s risin' at me
And I′m afraid that I'm not takin' my chances
How do I know it′s light in the horizon that I see?
I′ve seen questions but never answers
Darkness to me is only water to the sea
I've only ever heard of drought
Well, I used to be the one with the grandest of dreams
But how can hope keep believin′ through the war?
