Pretty and thin

In a world so big

Where do you go Boy, when you die?

Is it pretty and slow?

Is it up real high? I don't want to know
The singer doesn't want to think about the possibility that the listener may go to a negative afterlife.

I can't wait for the sun to go down
The artist is excited for the sun to set, likely because it signifies the upcoming arrival of the moon and nighttime.

Tired of squinting at this god-awful town
The singer is bored and dissatisfied with the town they are in.

I can't wait for that moon to rise
The singer is eagerly anticipating the moon's arrival.

She's my friend, always been, you can see it in my eyes

That I love her

When will you come home?

What did you find?

There is a fortress Around my heart Till death do we part
The artist has built an emotional wall around themselves as a form of protection, but they are open to the possibility of letting someone in for the rest of their life.

You'll burn in her sunlight You'll freeze in her night
The artist suggests that the listener will experience the extremes of the moon's influence, as it can cause both warmth and coldness.

You will run that way forever Like an echo
The singer implies that the listener will always be chasing after the moon, like an echo that fades away.

Come on, Mabel
The artist is addressing someone named Mabel to come and join them, perhaps as a way to ease their loneliness.
