I've been listening to this song on Sirius Hits for a while and finally decided to post the lyrics. Obviously the song moves me, but it surprises me that a the subject has made it to the Top 40 stations. It's not about sex, love, or getting high.
THRIVING IVORY
Angels On The Moon
Do you dream, that the world will know your name?
So tell me your name
And do you care, about all the little things or anything at all?
I wanna feel, all the chemicals inside I wanna feel
I wanna sunburn, just to know that I'm alive
To know I'm alive
Don't tell me if I'm dying, 'cause I don't wanna know
If I can't see the sun, maybe I should go
Don't wake me 'cause I'm dreaming, of angels on the moon
Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon
Do you believe, in the day that you were born?
Tell me, do you believe?
And do you know, that every day's
The first of the rest of your life?
Don't tell me if I'm dying, 'cause I don't wanna know
If I can't see the sun, maybe I should go
Don't wake me 'cause I'm dreaming, of angels on the moon
Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon
This is to one last day in the shadows
And to know a brother's love
This is to New York City angels
And the rivers of our blood
This is to all of us, to all of us
So don't tell me if I'm dying, 'cause I don't wanna know
If I can't see the sun, maybe I should go
Don't wake me cause I'm dreaming, of angels on the moon
Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon
Yeah, you can tell me all your thoughts
About the stars that fill polluted skies
And show me where you run to
When no one's left to take your side
But don't tell me where the road ends
'Cause I just don't wanna know,
No I don't wanna know
Don't tell me if I'm dying
Don't tell me if I'm dying
Don't tell me if I'm dying

Wow! Yeah, thanks for sharing that. I'll get it from iTunes.
No, but it's all about that door we must all go through, I just don't want to know when it opens for me or for you.
I just want to live each day and dream of days to come;
I only want to pretend, and yes, I know that's dumb
but I get plenty of messages that remind me there's a limit;
what's wrong with hoping that door closes without me in it?
---to all those who want to keep hope alive---
