When the moon comes up
And the sun goes down
The children come out to play
Climb out of the windows and rise from the boxes
The raven has come again
A messenger of the mistress
The one in the moon
The one who envy's the sun
Now her children come out and play
Dancing in circles
Singing in songs
For the blood they take
And the ash they make
When the fire burns down the houses
Of those who were cruel and never kind
Of those who walked in the sun
The moon's children come out and play in circles and stars
To help their mother
Walk the earth once again
For they play in shadows
And wake only at night
To see their mother rise each night
And for when their soul is set free
They rise to the sky in the stars
For they are with their mother
Trying to break her free
Free of her prison
The prison of the moon
Put there by the sun
For night is time for play
And the day is time for work
So we play all night, dancing about
'till mother says "lights out"
