The song One Way Ticket to the Moon by Eruption is a classic blues song about a man who has been left by his lover, giving him a one-way ticket to a life of loneliness and heartbreak. The song's chorus repeatedly uses the phrase "One way ticket to the blues" to emphasize the feeling of depression and hopeless feelings of the singer. The song's melody is upbeat and lively, but its lyrics are melancholic and heart-wrenching.
The beginning of the song starts with the sound of a train whistle blowing, followed by the lyrics that describe a "Choo choo train, tuckin' down the track, gotta travel on it, never comin' back." It suggests that the singer is leaving behind his old life and is now on his way to a new, unknown destination, reflecting on the emotional turmoil that he's going through. Usage of 'Lonely tear drops' indicate the pain of separation and moving on. The song's bridge includes a reference to two iconic songs of that time, 'Lonesome Town' and 'Heartbreak Hotel,' indicating the depth of pain, loneliness, and sadness that the singer is experiencing. The song ends with the chorus highlighting the emotions of the singer in a loop, indicating the cycle of sadness he seems to be stuck on.
