Lost in space
Luna Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's true
You're lazy
You're tired
And crazy
And you know there's something more
But you can't give it a name
Someone's selling all your heroes
And they seem so tame

You heard it all before
And said your case was tragic
You heard it all before
And now they say it's magic

You need
Time off
For good
Behavior
And you know there's something else
But you can't give a name
Someone's selling all your heroes
And it seems such a shame

You heard it all before
You said your case was tragic
You heard it all before
And now they say it's magic

You heard it all before
They said your case was tragic




You heard it all before
And now they say it's magic

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of "Lost in Space" present a very introspective picture of someone who is struggling with their own sense of purpose and identity. Luna sings about the character's fatigue and inability to name the feeling that's been gnawing at them. They feel disconnected from themselves and the world around them. The second line, "You're tired and crazy" suggests that the character is exhausted and losing their grip on reality.


At the same time, they feel a sense of longing for something more meaningful in their life. They know there's an emptiness within, but they can't quite put their finger on what it is. Meanwhile, the outside world is selling them a manufactured version of what they're supposed to aspire to, but it all seems so shallow and false. The lines, "Someone's selling all your heroes, And they seem so tame" convey a sense of disillusionment and disappointment in the world around them.


The repetition of the phrase "You heard it all before, And now they say it's magic" emphasizes the character's sense of being trapped and hopeless. They've tried to express their feelings before, but they've been dismissed, and now it feels like the world is gaslighting them by pretending everything is okay when it's not. The character needs time off to re-evaluate their life and to find a sense of purpose and meaning.
