[Verse 1]
I look exhausted
Oh, stiff and awkward on the outside of the moment
It’s not my first time bitter, drunk on a red carpet
Or my first time losing and it won’t be my last
You said, “Ignore it
Oh, California is so much more than some awards show
You’re no more important than an insect on a window
They’ll see you climbing, but won’t care until you get close”

[Pre-Chorus]
You said some people don’t know why they’re wolves

They just howl for the sound of it
Some will never know they’re beautiful
Until the crowd points it out for them
But I see you through a camera flash
I look back and you laugh
And this is hard, but I feel less far

[Chorus]
This ain’t Watertown, I’m on alien ground
I’m a collеge kid with my windows down
I’m an astronaut, you’re the Moon
I starе at you, I sing to you
I circle you

[Verse 2]
Rain on a steel roof leaks through the ceiling
Hits the patrons in the ballroom
You said, “Oh, look, babe, even God is trying to warn you
All this ain’t for you”
But I cling to my seat

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess some people don’t know why they’re wolves
They just howl for the sound of it
Some will never know they’re beautiful

Until the crowd points it out for them
But I see you through a camera flash
I look back and you laugh
And this is hard, but I feel less far

[Chorus]
This ain’t Watertown, I’m on alien ground
I’m a college kid with my windows down
I’m an astronaut, you’re the Moon
I stare at you, I sing to you

[Verse 3]
And I clutch my cloth and I bite my tongue
I’m an aging wolf who lost the taste for blood
Even anxious pups need the Moon
I howl for you, I sing to you

[Bridge]
I circle you
I circle you
I circle you

[Outro]
If I’m gonna lose you either way
If I’m gonna lose you either way
If I’m gonna lose you either way
I’m gonna lose you either way
(If I’m gonna lose you either way)
