Here far away
One could feel the earth vibrate
Moon changing shape and shade
as we all do under its gaze
Yellow moon on the rise
Yellow moon on the rise

Round we go, where we stop no one knows
So tonight the moon i go...
Yellow moon on the rise

An echo that rings a bullet unchained
one life, one grave joins the parade

At night the sky grows dark with fallen stars
who comes so far a headstone and grave
the colors turns grey
the black and white fades

Yellow Moon on the rise
Yellow Moon on the rise

Yellow Moon on the rise
Yellow Moon on the rise
And so you see, I have come to doubt
All that I once held as true
I stand alone without beliefs
The only truth I know is you.

  • Thought all night about starting a thread about this song - I haven't heard it yet. But I bet it will be the best song of the album.

    No one seemed to want it on other than Mike, Neil Young-influence. I think it will be the stand out song!

    I want this song to be a show opener... BADLY.. I just can't get over this tune.. Aside from it being my fav thus far, it really does have an opener quality though. I think it would be killer to open a show with this.

    alternate lyrics: :D

    Clouds roll by
    Reeling is what they say
    Or is it just my way?
    Wind blows by, low light
    Side-tracked, low light
    Can't see my tracks, your scent-way back
    .............

    It has taken a few listens to get Neil Youngs ...yellow moon on the rise from Helpless out of my head. That being said a great tune - almost tribute-like to uncle Neil.

  • This song is growing on me for sure. I really think it has to do with album placement on this one. I think SBM is so out of place and terrible that I'm almost sick after it and I can't truly get into Yellow Moon until halfway through. When I have individual tracks I will be adding something in place of SBM and listening to Yellow Moon on its own......

    I was the same way! This song has heavy Young influence, and that's what I love about it.
