Made Of Stars
Low Leaf Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Until I pulled my soul, out of my heart
I used to carry 'round all my scars
Until I saw my face, inside the stars
We're made of stars
Stars
We're made of stars
Maybe when you close your eyes to sleep
Maybe in your dreams, you can find peace
I used to think that I wasn't from this place
But now I know for sure
My blood's from outer space
And now I see the light
In everything
Oh yeah, it's quite lovely
To live in harmony
No, it's not hard When you're made of stars
Made of stars
When you're made of stars
Maybe when you close your eyes to sleep
Maybe in your dreams, you can find peace
The lyrics to Low Leaf's song "Made of Stars" can be interpreted as a journey towards self-realization and acceptance. The first verse talks about the fear of being alone, which is a common fear amongst humans. However, the singer then talks about pulling their soul out of their heart, which could be interpreted as the act of introspection and discovering one's true essence. Once this is achieved, the singer sees their own face, not as damaged by scars, but as a reflection in the stars, symbolizing the cosmic connection between all beings.
The chorus repeats the phrase "we're made of stars," which could also be construed as the idea that all of us are connected, made up of the same cosmic energy. The idea that our blood may be from outer space further adds to this concept of our interconnectedness with the universe.
The second verse talks about finding peace in our dreams, which could be interpreted as finding peace within ourselves. The final lines of the song where the singer talks about seeing the light in everything and living in harmony implies that an acceptance of oneself leads to an acceptance of others.
Overall, "Made of Stars" is a spiritual and introspective song that encourages listeners to accept their true selves and recognize that we are all connected.
