"what's wrong", i think you asked me
"nothing," i probably said
i was lying, absolutely
so left it at that and then both went to bed
and how many times
can you take that bet
before you wake up one day
in a sea of regret

i think it needs to be said
guess i'm just tired
i know you are too
i wanted to call
and say i love you
i'm really just tired
i wish i could rest
this heart's busy pumping
blood to my chest

what happened to sixteen and romance
and trying to hook up after the dance
we both do a lot and we do nothing too
every day is more than just a list to get through
and how many times
can you take that bet
before you wake up one day
and your whole life's a mess

i think it needs to be said
guess i'm just tired
i know you are too
i wanted to call
and tell you i love you
i'm really just tired
i wish we could rest
this heart's busy pumping
blood to my chest

howl at the moon
howl at the moon, yeah
howl at the moon
cause it helps me get through
(repeat)
howl at the moon [bad word] out of things you're holdin on to

howl at the moon
