Moonstrucker
Atrocity Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I dance the moonlight-dance

dark clouds are passing by
Clearing up the darkened sky
Face in the teeth of the wind
To watch the rising light

with my lonely beating heart
Step by step, so close to you
Pounding, pounding amid the glade
I raise my arms up to the sky

moonstrucker

nightly scene
Nocturnal game
Moon obsessed
Moonstrucker

changing garment night by night
Appaering in habitual grace
Ocean dressed in silver clothes
The crescent keeps my thoughts

with my lonely beating heart
Step by step, so close to you
Pounding, pounding amid the glade
I raise my arms up to the sky

nightly scene
Nocturnal game
Moon obsessed
Moonstrucker

the old calaboose memories
Flashing through my mind
From time immemorial
You guide my blood-damned life

with my lonely beating heart
Step by step, so close to you
Pounding, pounding amid the glade
I raise my arms up to the sky

moonstrucker

I dance the moonlight-dance

moonstrucker

nightly scene
Nocturnal game
Moon obsessed
Moonstrucker

confidence
Devoutness




Moon obsessed
Moonstrucker

The song "Moonstrucker" by Atrocity Feat. Das Ich is a poetic description of the power and allure of the moon, and the effect it has on the singer. The first verse sets the scene with dark clouds passing by, eventually giving way to the moon's rising light. The singer is in the midst of nature, feeling their heart beating with each step they take, and raising their arms to the sky in a kind of ritualistic gesture.


The chorus repeats the word "Moonstrucker," which can be interpreted as someone who is obsessed or entranced by the moon. The second verse continues the themes of transformation and obsession, with the moon changing garment night by night, appearing in habitual grace, and keeping the singer's thoughts. However, this obsession is not just a passing fancy - the memories of the moon and its power stretch back to "time immemorial," guiding the singer's "blood-damned life."


The final repetition of the chorus emphasizes the singer's confidence and devoutness in their moon worship. Overall, "Moonstrucker" is an evocative ode to the mysterious and alluring power of the moon, and the personal transformation it can inspire.
