Dead Moon Night
Dead Moon Lyrics

Thunderbolts and nightsticks
Unexpected and violent events that feel like they're coming from those in power

Coming out of the sky
These events seem to be beyond human control, like a force of nature

Flames overhead
Danger and destruction are all around, there's no escaping it

Rain until you cry
The situation is depressing and overwhelming

My baby's on the highway
Someone I care deeply for is out in this chaos

Come in from the cold
I want my loved one to escape and find refuge

Never going home, never going home
But it doesn't seem like there is a safe place to go back to

D for disaster
An inevitable calamity is approaching

E for my eyes
I am watching this all happen, powerless to stop it

A for my anger
I am furious that this is happening and that I can't do anything about it

D before I die
It feels like everything is falling apart and there's nothing left to do

M for mona
A person I care about, perhaps the same one on the highway

O oh good
But there is some glimmer of hope or positivity

O oh good
This hope is repeated to emphasize its importance

N for the night
All of this is happening at night, a time of darkness and uncertainty

Dead moon night
The moon, a symbol of change and transformation, is dead - things are only getting worse

Call me if you need me
Here I am, ready and willing to do what I can to help

Down in new orleans
I'm not sure where I am or where you are, but somehow we will find each other

Can't release the victims
The tragedy continues on and on, the damage is done

Have you seen what I've seen
I can't even begin to describe what I've witnessed

In new york city
This chaos is happening everywhere, not just one isolated incident

Don't you cross the line
There are boundaries and rules that must be respected or things will only get worse

Guard it from the light, guard it from the light
Keep a watchful eye, as exposure to light could expose the harsh reality

Hazard on the highway
The roads, once a symbol of freedom and mobility, are now treacherous

Breakin' down slow
Movement is slow and laborious, every step could be perilous

They thought she was lookin'
Those in power may be scrutinizing our every move, looking for any reason to punish us

Now I'm all alone
Isolation and loneliness are a common result of these events

Won't you take me home
But even in this dire situation, we still long for comfort and the familiarity of home

Now I'm all alone, won't you take me home
This sentiment is repeated, underscoring the need for safety and comfort
