Moon Song from Escape Artist by Danielle Durack

Living on earth keeps breaking my heart
So I’ve got my sights set on Venus or Mars
or some other rock revolving some other star
Guess it doesn’t matter so long as it’s far

Cuz living on earth keeps breaking my heart
testing my patience and giving me scars
and all that I want is to to lay in your arms
so send me away it’s all so fucking hard

And I’m always staring at the moon
Cuz it’s so easy to see the bright side
when it’s glaring back at you

Living on earth keeps breaking my heart
So I made up my mind and I’m leaving tomorrow
I did all the math and I’m planning the launch
I’ll bring all my books and live on top ramen

Cuz living on earth keeps breaking my heart
but I guess I’ll admit I’d probably miss it a lot
Like mom and dad and Matt and my dog
all those big little things you don’t miss til they’re gone

And I’m always staring at the moon
Cuz it’s so easy to see the bright side
when it’s glaring back at you

Living on earth keeps breaking my heart
but it always heals and life always goes on
the world’s still turning so there’s always tomorrow
I’ll hold onto hope cuz it’s all that I got
