John T. Wurzer - Face of an Upside Down Moon Lyrics

People are getting weirder
Faces keep getting colder
My heart aches from all the fear here
My joints ache from getting older

Walked out this morning; saw the face of the moon turned upside down.
Eyes on the bottom and its shit eating grin turned into a frown.
Nostrils drowning in buckets of rain, eyelids coated with ancient dust
Sinking swiftly into the horizon, beyond a windmill, with nobody to trust

People are getting weirder
Faces keep getting colder
My heart aches from all the fear here
My joints ache from getting older

I kept on walking and saw the face of a clock turned upside down
Instead of 6 a.m. it was half past noon at the courthouse in the center of town
I missed breakfast at Melinda's café, I had to settle for a cup of Joe
A side of chips, a BLT, an ice cream soda and no place for me to go

People are getting weirder
Faces keep getting colder
My heart aches from all the fear here
My joints ache from getting older

So I stepped outside and saw the face of humanity upside down
Instead of loving each other we were spewing hatred and blood all over the ground
Rubber bullets and tear gas were flying, cops and robbers and pacifists died
Black and white never seem to disappear; a cacophony of vengeance and fear on both sides

People are getting weirder
Faces keep getting colder
My heart aches from all the fear here
My joints ache from getting older
