Moon
Blood Cultures Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Was it cause that I
In the olden days were yours
Is to get back to the start
Is to get back to the start

(You can't take me out, you can't take me out)
But that's just what I do, you're trying to play it cool
(You can't take me out, you can't take me out)

But that's just what we do, as we sail into the moon

I stay open cause I don't know what to do with your clues
Tried to tell you that I'm not the only one on my own
Choose a side where I'm never gonna be your baby
But that don't mean that I'm the only one that didn't see it

I was an astronaut
But I've only come so far
See the monsters in the dark
Was the pieces all apart

(You can't take me out, you can't take me out)
But that's just what I do, you're trying to play it cool
(You can't take me out, you can't take me out)
But that's just what we do, as we sail into the moon

I stay open cause I don't know what to do with your clues
Tried to tell you that I'm not the only one on my own
Choose a side where I'm never gonna be your baby
But that don't mean that I'm the only one that didn't see it

I stay open cause I don't know what to do with your clues
Tried to tell you that you're not the only one on their own
Choose a side but you're never gonna be my baby
But that don't mean that you're the only one that didn't see me

I stay open cause I don't know what to do with your clues
Tried to tell you that I'm not the only one on my own
Choose a side where I'm never gonna be your baby
But that don't mean that I'm the only one that didn't see it

(You can't take me out)
I stay open cause I don't know what to do with your clues
Tried to tell you that you're not the only one on their own
(You can't take me out)
Choose a side but you're never gonna be my baby
But that don't mean that you're the only one that didn't see me

(You can't take me out)
I stay open, I stay open, I stay open
Tried to tell you, tried to tell you, tried to tell you
(You can't take me out)

Choose a side, choose a side, choose a side
That don't mean that you're the only one that didn't see me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Blood Cultures' song "Moon" seem to be exploring a complicated relationship. The singer refers to an old connection, perhaps a romantic one, and questions whether it was because they were "yours" that they felt a certain way. They want to get back to the start, perhaps to rediscover why things were the way they were. However, the other person seems to be playing it cool and trying to take the singer out of the situation, but they both end up sailing into the unknown, towards the "moon".

The singer is conflicted, as they try to make sense of the other person's actions and decipher their "clues". The other person seems to be trying to distance themselves and make it clear that they won't be the singer's "baby". However, the singer declares that they are not alone in this dynamic and that the other person is not the only one on their own. The lyric "See the monsters in the dark / Was the pieces all apart" creates a haunting image of confusion and difficulty. The song ends with the singer stating that they will stay open to things, but they won't be taking sides or being anyone's baby.

Overall, "Moon" seems to be a contemplation of a complex relationship where both parties are struggling to understand each other's motives and intentions. The singer is grappling with feelings of uncertainty and trying to make sense of the situation as they remain open to what might come next.

Was it cause that I
Is it because I

In the olden days were yours
That in the past, you claimed me as yours

Is to get back to the start
My goal is to start anew

But that's just what I do, you're trying to play it cool
I refuse to conform to your indifference

But that's just what we do, as we sail into the moon
As we head towards the unknown, we remain unfazed

I stay open cause I don't know what to do with your clues
I keep an open mind, since your actions confuse me

Tried to tell you that I'm not the only one on my own
I informed you that I'm not the lone ranger

Choose a side where I'm never gonna be your baby
I refuse to be affiliated with you

But that don't mean that I'm the only one that didn't see it
I'm not the only one who didn't notice

I was an astronaut
I used to be an explorer

But I've only come so far
Yet I've only made a limited progress
