The next five years Emerald Mind continued working on new songs and trying to record a quality demo. In those days it was not an easy task, because Vladivostok was too far away from any metal music industry. Finally, in november 2009, band released their first album “Tales Of Soveena” and moved to St. Petersburg to discover new horizons.
The northern capital met the musicians with the cold wind and lots of challenges. So even the very existence of the band was under question. In 2011 Alexey and Svetlana decided to move on and start writing new material for the second album. So at this moment this work almost done and we can’t wait to share with you our hopes, dreams, experience and feelings that we put in our music!
Save Me for the Moon
Emerald Mind Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Shining smile never left her face away
Lonely, but full of life
Talking to her trees and rivers day by day
But her winds had changed
Little girl was trapped in the cage of stone
Move her gift away
Save me, save me, if you love me
For I lost my feelings, buried here alive
Hold me, hold me for a moment
Like a leaf I'm falling into ignorance
And save me for the Moon, save me for the trees
For the only truth! Knowledge in me never finds the way, if I die
Secrets of the past, I'll give it all to you
Stories of this world, just save me for the Moon
Many years passed by
Seems It was a dream and never had been before
She can't remember why
Every night she goes to the seashore
She suddenly stands still
As if she's hearing whisper of a lonely owl
She jumps off her bed
Echoes of the nature calling for her soul
Save me, save me if you love me
For I lost my feelings, buried here alive
Hold me, hold me for a moment
Child in me still calling! Back to innocence!
And save me for the Moon, save me for the trees
For the only truth! Knowledge in me never finds the way if I die
Secrets of the past, I'll give it all to you
Stories of this world, just save me for the Moon
The lyrics of Emerald Mind’s Save Me for the Moon recount the tale of a young girl who once lived a vibrant life in communion with nature until her gift was taken away from her, leaving her trapped and isolated in a “cage of stone.” The girl implores her savior to rescue her buried emotions, to “hold her for a moment” and bring back the childlike essence of innocence that she had lost. Her yearning to reconnect with nature is emphasized through her plea to be saved not just for herself but also for the trees, the moon, and for the only truth she knows. The lyrics reveal the girl’s journey to find her way back to her roots, back to the secrets and stories that connect her with the world of nature that she was once a part of.
