Mr. Moon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My feet are still sore my back's on the fringes
We tore up the walls we slept on couches
We lifted this house, we lifted this house
Firecrackers in the east my car parked south
Your hands on my cheeks, your shoulder in my mouth
I was up against the wall on the west mezzanine
Oh, Anna Sun
Oh, Anna Sun
What do you know? This house is falling apart
What can I say? This house is falling apart
We got no money, but we got heart
We're gonna rattle this ghost town
This house is falling apart
Screen falling off the door, door hanging off the hinges
My feet are still sore my back's on the fringes
We were up against the wall on the west mezzanine
We rattle this town, we rattle this scene
Oh, Anna Sun
Oh, Anna Sun
What do you know? This house is falling apart
What can I say? This house is falling apart
We got no money, but we got heart
We're gonna rattle this ghost town
What do you know? This house is falling apart
What can I say? This house is falling apart
We got no money, but we got heart
We're gonna rattle this ghost town
This house is falling apart
This house is falling apart
Live my life without
Station wagon rides
Fumbling around the back
Not one seat belt on
Wait for summertime
Coming up for air
Now it's all a wash
Now it's all a wash
(Screen falling off the door)
(Door hanging off the hinges) Live my life without
(My feet are still)
(Sore my back's on the fringes) coming up for air
(We tore up the walls)
(We slept on couches) now it's all a wash
(We lifted this house)
(We lifted this house) I want everyone
(Firecrackers in the east)
(My car parked south) racing down the hill
(Your hands on my cheeks)
(Your shoulder in my mouth) I am faster than you
(I was up against the wall)
(On the west mezzanine) wait for summertime
(We rattle this town) wait for summertime
Oh, Anna Sun
Oh, Anna Sun, Sun
What do you know? This house is falling apart
What can I say? This house is falling apart
We got no money, but we got heart
We're gonna rattle this ghost town
What do you know? This house is falling apart
What can I say? This house is falling apart
We got no money, but we got heart
We're gonna rattle this ghost town
This house is falling apart
This house is falling apart
This house is falling apart
(We lifted this house)
(We lifted this house)
We're gonna rattle this ghost town
This house is falling apart
This house is falling apart
The lyrics of "Anna Sun" by Walk the Moon convey the story of a group of friends who have a strong bond and are determined to make the most of their lives, even if they don't have much going for them. They describe a ramshackle house that they have fixed up and made their own, but which is falling apart nonetheless. Despite their financial struggles, they are full of heart and determination, making plans to "rattle this ghost town" and live life to the fullest. The chorus, "O, Anna Sun," is a chant that serves as a rallying cry for the group, and the verses describe their wild adventures and the memories they make together.
The song captures a sense of youthful energy and exuberance, as well as a sense of recklessness and a desire to live in the moment. The singer speaks of days spent racing down hills and fumbling around in the back of station wagons, relishing the freedom and joy of youth. At the same time, there is a hint of melancholy in the lyrics, as the realization dawns that this carefree existence cannot last forever, and that the house they have worked so hard to fix up is slowly falling apart.
Overall, the lyrics to "Anna Sun" are a celebration of the spirit of youth and the power of friendship, as well as a reminder of the transience of life and the importance of making the most of every moment.

Mr. Moon?
[Moon]
Yeah?
[Kids]
Tell us about the sky!
[Moon]
The sky is deep, and dark, and eternally high.
Many people think that's where you go when you die.
[Kids]
Do you?
[Moon]
Well, I think you return to obscure, โ
Or wherever you were
Before you were, โ
But I won't let you lose yourself in the rain.
We have so much left to sing.
