Luna, who began penning songs and performing at age 14, has already shared stages with The Killers, K.Flay, Chance the Rapper, P!nk, Odesza, Major Lazer, Steve Aoki, Kid Cudi, Run the Jewels, Muse, and more of music's biggest names. She has spent time on the festival market, playing KAABOO, Lost Lake, Global Dance Festival, So What Music Fest, EMERGE and many others. Named a Taco Bell “Feed the Beat” artist and BMI Indie Spotlight all in 2016, Luna began breaking pops mold, earning fans in Galore, GQ, NYLON, Idolator, Ladygunn, Teen Vogue, The 405, Teen, MTV, VH1, Ones To Watch and more.
As of late, the LA-via-Phoenix starlet joined forces with Wolves Music for her newest single “Sucker Punch.” Drawing on childhood influences like Blondie and Gwen Stefani, her latest work feels fresh and dynamic, both personally and in a broader scope.
With songs like “Sucker Punch, which she says is “very emotional and somewhere I’ve never been before as an artist,” every one of Luna Aura’s cards is on the table. She’s aware that there’s still growing to do but she’s radically self-aware now, making note of the cracks in her character and filling them with gold. There’s no hiding behind a curtain; if anything, she hopes that her newest work will resonate with those listeners going through the same trials.
“I’m showing more of who I am as a person through my music,” she says. “I’m not the perfect pop princess example that people expect me to be, I’m vulnerable, I’m human, and I’m being more honest than I’ve ever been.”
Madhouse
Luna Aura Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So my personalities
A sweet fusion of the grocery
But I swear to god I'm free
Don't put me on a dice
Fill me up with salt, tighter
Looking pretty, stunning, witty, can just
Can ever any other way
Out of my mind
Say what you gonna say
In the meantime
Welcome to the madhouse
Baby, where nobody can save me
So throw off the key
The madhouse, baby
Where nobody can save me
'Cuz crazy looks good yeah
Crazy looks good on me
On me
Crazy looks good on me
On me
Tell me I'm shameless, so
Your words are flameless, no
Don't burn, don't hurt, don't work
Don't try and change but you can't see
Never gonna running, hide
Never gonna?
All the toys, all the boys
Find joy and telling me what I can't be
Can ever any other way
Out of my mind
Say what you gonna say
In the meantime
Welcome to the madhouse
Baby, where nobody can save me
So throw off the key
The madhouse, baby
Where nobody can save me
'Cuz crazy looks good yeah
Crazy looks good on me
On me
Crazy looks good on me
On me
Call me crazy
You can save
So, pull off the key
Call me crazy
Won't you baby
It looks good on
It looks good
Welcome to the madhouse
Baby, where nobody can save me
So throw off the key
Madhouse, baby
Where nobody can save me
'Cuz crazy looks good yeah
Crazy looks good on me
Call me crazy
Won't you baby
It looks good on
Crazy looks good on me
Call me crazy
Won't you baby
It looks good on
Crazy looks good on me
In Luna Aura's song "Madhouse," she explores the idea of embracing one's own craziness and uniqueness rather than conforming to societal norms and expectations. The lyrics describe a person who is multidimensional, with different personalities and traits combined together in a "sweet fusion" like a grocery list. Aura declares that she is free and does not want to be put on a dice or molded into what others want her to be. She urges listeners to join her in the madhouse, where nobody can save her, but she can revel in the beauty of her crazy self.
Throughout the song, there is a sense of rebellion against the outside world's judgement and expectations. The line, "All the toys, all the boys find joy in telling me what I can't be," shows the frustration that comes with people trying to put her in a box. However, she remains unphased and encourages people to embrace their own insanity, even if others cannot understand it. The repetition of the line, "Crazy looks good on me," highlights the idea that one's eccentricities are what make them unique and beautiful.
Overall, "Madhouse" celebrates individuality and pushes back against the idea that one must conform to societal norms. Instead, Luna Aura encourages listeners to be unapologetic in being their true selves and embracing their own madness.
Line by Line Meaning
You're the way you look at me or
My perception of myself is shaped by the way you see me
So my personalities
I embody multiple personas that are all parts of me
A sweet fusion of the grocery
These different parts of myself are like ingredients in a recipe
But I swear to god I'm free
Despite these different personalities, I am still in control of myself
Don't put me on a dice
Don't try to categorize me or put me in a box
Fill me up with salt, tighter
My experiences and struggles have made me stronger
Looking pretty, stunning, witty, can just
I can be whoever you want me to be, but that's not the real me
Gonna be everything you want me to be
I am tired of pretending to be someone I'm not for the sake of others
Can ever any other way
I can't live my life any other way
Out of my mind
I am not in control of my thoughts and emotions
Say what you gonna say
Go ahead and judge me, I don't care
In the meantime
While you're talking, I'm living my life
Welcome to the madhouse
My life is chaotic and unpredictable
Baby, where nobody can save me
I have to save myself, no one else can do it for me
So throw off the key
I am trapped in this madhouse, but I am choosing to stay here
The madhouse, baby
My life is full of madness and chaos
Where nobody can save me
I am responsible for my own well-being
'Cuz crazy looks good yeah
I embrace my own insanity and it makes me who I am
Crazy looks good on me
My craziness is a part of my identity and I am proud of it
On me
It's a part of who I am
Tell me I'm shameless, so
People judge me and call me names, but I am not ashamed
Your words are flameless, no
Your words have no power over me
Don't burn, don't hurt, don't work
I am not affected by your negativity
Don't try and change but you can't see
You can't see beyond the mask I wear, so you try to change me
Never gonna running, hide
I am not running away from my problems
Never gonna?
Unknown
All the toys, all the boys
People try to control me or use me for their own purposes
Find joy and telling me what I can't be
They like to limit me and tell me what I can't do
Call me crazy
I am proud of my insanity and embrace it
You can save
You can't save me from myself
Won't you baby
Will you at least try?
It looks good on
My craziness is a part of my identity and I am proud of it
