WISH I KNEW
(R. Moon/T. Cohen)

Some of them will stick around
Some will come and some will go
though I can't say why
Yes, I know, I tend to oversee
Well, you know to the degree
That I wish I knew

Everything about you
I don't want to be afraid anymore
Dreading the moment you would turn

And slip away,
leaving me to walk in circles
while I wonder why you went
and it makes no sense
you were never sure, and those
doubts drew us apart, so I guess I'll say goodbye
Oh, I wish I knew

Everything about you
I don't want to be afraid anymore
Dreading the moment you would leave and run away...

(R. Moon)

So come on, I've told you everything is alright
Back off, you've been whining for a minute now.
All you had to do was turn your will in.
Can't you realize this isn't winning?

So shut up! You've already had your chance to talk
Listen up! Boy, you really need to wise up.
Cause you're blabbering around your so-called wisdom.
The highlight of your speeches is when you stop.

So be gone, so long.
We've had enough of you, Cracker Jack.

And oh, you used to be so lovable.
You used to be quite responsible.
You used to be cool but you fell and slipped away.

So be gone, so long.
We've had enough of you, Cracker Jack.

"think what you are,
you're not very far..."

"no weight,
no wait at all..."


"Grave Digger i told you to wait,
for the faith that ferments fate,"

"on the gnaw-ledge,
(take a dive)"

"Grave Waiter didn't i say to dig,
need a hole 10 000 feet big,"

"Grave Digger won't you raise the dead,
that go pacing through your head?"

the plummet of the summit,
isn't that what i saw?
the  stairway was a tongue,
leading into the maw,
and the seekers it scoured,
were all duly devoured,

don't say "it gets better" 

if it gets better with time,
then how come i'm,
always in pain,
again and again,

if it get's better with time,
then how come i'm still waiting,
all of the time,
sitting here contemplating,
just what i'm gonna do,
when there's nothing that i can,
but the horizon is blue,
and it's holding my hand,

it says "it gets better with time"

but i could barely see,

does it get better with time?

"it gets better with time,"

if it gets better with time,
(how can it?)
then how come i'm still sinking,

down in the grime,
(dead planet)
sitting alone and thinking,

just what i'm gonna do,
when there's nothing that i can,
but the horizon is blue,
and it's holding my hand,

it says "it gets better with time"
better with time,

they say it get's better with time,
and all that i can do is climb,
but that's some bygone paradigm,
called up and up,

when moving up means falling down,
with everybody all around,
i wrap myself within the sound,
SO very cold,

i don't wanna...

Just Not Fair

Born and raised in Ponce, Puerto Rico, Rick Moon is a producer/singer/songwriter living and working in Miami, Florida.  He has been writing and producing songs since he was 12 years old.  After various bands in PR and a brief stint in college studying classical music, Rick Moon moved to Miami to pursue an education in Audio Production. On June 7, 2012, Rick Moon released the poppy feel-good debut album, Tired Of Sleeping. Tired Of Sleeping received positive feedback from audiences in NY, LA, Miami and Puerto Rico and its title-song, Tired Of Sleeping, was placed in regular rotation on Puerto Rican radio.

Moon released a second album in September 2015 called Cottage Scenes and began performing with a new band in Miami, FL. After beginning to perform with other artists and taking on several projects as producer, Moon released his third album, Electric Lunch. This album showcases a significant sonic expansion from his previously more subdued and folksy, Cottage Scenes. The self-produced concept album with big power-pop hooks points to Rick’s lifelong love of XTC, Todd Rundgren, Mersey Beat, and classic British rock at large.

Rick Moon followed Electric Lunch with a single called, Faulty Design, which set Moon on a new path of dreamy synth-bedroom-pop. He's currently recording his next album which he's been working on on-and-off due to his busy career as a songwriter, mixing engineer, live performer and producer for other artists and his side-projects.
