Puressence Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come on baby moonbeam
Let it flow
I can show you things
That you don't know
Will this last forever
They don't think so
What's that in the river
Swollen torso
Caught in acts on the movie screens that you care for
Tremendous gaps in the knowledge you possess
Your flynapses ? flicker well that's what they live for
This ain't the way she wanted it to be
Come on baby moonbeam
Let it flow
I can show you things that you don't know
Will this last forever
They don't think so
What's that in the river
Swollen torso
Standing out in the rain on the giants causeway
Something about the ?take me home
And if you wanna do me your way then i'll do you my way
Ain't no other treason
This ain't the way she wanted it to be
I said this ain't the way to feel
I said this ain't no way to be
I said this ain't no way to feel
I said this ain't no place to be
Come on baby moonbeam
Let it flow
I can show you things that you don't know
Will this last forever
They don't know so
What's that in the river
This ain't no way to feel
I said this ain't no place to be
I said this ain't no way should feel
I said this ain't no place to be

Overall Meaning

The chorus of Puressence's song "Moonbeam" calls out to a "baby moonbeam" to let things flow, promising to show them things they don't know. The lyrics convey a sense of uncertainty, questioning whether or not "this will last forever" with the lyrics "they don't think so." The following lines suggest a sense of shock or horror as the singer spots "swollen torso" in a river.


Moving on to the second verse, the lyrics highlight gaps in knowledge or understanding, playfully gesturing towards the flickering "flynapses" and "what they live for." The singer goes on to suggest that "this ain't the way she wanted it to be," elliptically signifying that someone involved may be disappointed with their current circumstances. The song concludes with a repetition of the chorus alongside more declarations that "this ain't no way to feel" and "this ain't no place to be," alluding to a sense of disappointment or unfulfillment.
