Rises The Moon by Liana Flores

Days (1)________ sometimes as if they'll never end
Sun (2)________ its heels to taunt you
But after sunlit days, one thing stays the same
Rises the moon
Days fade into a watercolour blur
Memories (3)________ and haunt you
But look into the lake, (4)____________________ like smoke
Rises the moon
Oh-oh, close your weary eyes
I (5)______________ you that soon the autumn comes
To darken fading summer skies
Breathe, breathe, breathe
Days pull you down just like a sinking ship
Floating is getting harder
But tread the water, child, and know that meanwhile
Rises the moon
Days (6)________ you up just like a daffodil
Uprooted from its garden
They'll tell you (7)________ you owe, but know even so
Rises the moon
You'll be (8)______________ by sleep
I promise you that (9)________ the autumn comes
To steal away each (10)__________ you keep
Breathe, breathe, breathe
