Moths
Darkher Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They warned of dark clouds,
gathering over head.
Walls they would climb,
to cut your wings as the streams bled.
I want to live, not be afraid and forsaken,
rise from the embers to the flames,
as we circle the Moon

Overall Meaning

However, despite this warning of danger, the singer expresses a desire to live and not be afraid. The following lines "rise from the embers to the flames, as we circle the Moon" suggest a transformation and a willingness to face the danger head-on. The use of fire imagery in these lines emphasizes the sense of passion and energy needed to confront the threat.





Overall, the lyrics of Moths seem to speak of resilience in the face of danger, and a willingness to confront fear head-on. Despite the warning of darkness, the singer expresses a desire to live and face the danger with courage and determination.
