Blind Myself Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Moonlight Darkness
When we rest our heads
Others come out like:
Rats , roaches and parasites
Looking to mop every bit of moonlight in sight
Lost in the shadows
My light grows dim
Expand digesting their meal
Conspiring when to make their next move
The lyrics of Blind Myself's song Luna evoke a sense of despair and powerlessness that accompanies depression. The opening lines, "Depression sets in, Moonlight Darkness" describe the way in which darkness seems to envelop the mind, blocking out any hope or optimism. As the song progresses, the metaphor shifts to the image of nocturnal creatures, specifically rats, roaches, and parasites, that become active during the night when most humans are asleep. These creatures are described as being greedy and relentless in their quest to consume any available moonlight, a symbol for hope and positivity.
The singer is then depicted as being "lost in the shadows," with their own light growing dim as the darkness threatens to overwhelm them. Meanwhile, the rats and roaches continue to feast on the moonlight, expanding their bellies and digesting their meal. The final lines of the song suggest that these creatures are conspiring to make their next move, implying that there is some sinister force at work that is trying to exacerbate the singer's sense of despair and hopelessness.
Overall, the lyrics of Luna convey a deep sense of sadness and despair, while also implying that there are forces at work that are trying to keep the singer trapped in this state of mind. The song speaks to anyone who has ever experienced depression, or who has felt powerless in the face of difficult circumstances.
Line by Line Meaning
Depression sets in
Feelings of sadness and hopelessness take over
Moonlight Darkness
The absence of light amplifies the darkness
When we rest our heads
During our moments of vulnerability and exhaustion
Others come out like:
Individuals with malicious intentions emerge
Rats , roaches and parasites
Metaphors for people who seek to prey on others
Looking to mop every bit of moonlight in sight
Intent on taking away any glimmer of hope or happiness
Lost in the shadows
Feeling alone and abandoned
My light grows dim
My inner strength and positivity are fading
When they rest their gluttent bellies
When those who harm rest and are temporarily satisfied
Expand digesting their meal
Becoming stronger and more dangerous
Conspiring when to make their next move
Plotting to cause more harm and destruction
