The Moon
Sarah Ferri Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lights are black in to silver blue
She throws out of veil
And felt the air will do
The moon
Playing hide and seek
She wakes me, draws me, keeps me
And she draws obscure figures in the dark
I can't see where I'm running
Yes, I am lost
In the jungle of thoughts
They going through my cross
I run and keep running
Never felt so alive
And I'm drifting, Lord
On a whispers
Whisper in the ease
With the windows wise through me
And I'm drifting, Lord
On a whispers
Whisper in the ease
With the windows wise through me
And I'm feeling blue
The moon
Is playing tricks on me
Soon as fever will
Unleash the wildest dreams
The moon
Sings a siren song
She lose me like cat into the dark
Swampy vampires
Rising up from the ground
Maybe failing the hunter
Emmas shop has a knife
Trees giving of the wild perfume
Making me long for
Those little adventures
And I'm drifting, Lord
On a whispers
Whisper in the ease
And the windows wise through me
Never felt so alive
But the linger I miss all night
Never felt so alive
But the linger I miss all night
From this moment
The moon
Is playing tricks on me
Soon as fever will
Unleash the wildest dreams
The moon
Sings a siren song
She lose me like cat into the dark
In the dark
In Sarah Ferri's song "The Moon," the singer describes how the moon affects her and takes her on a journey into her own thoughts and dreams. The opening lines of the song describe how the moonlight transforms the world from black to silver blue, and how it seems to throw a veil over everything. This gives the impression that the world is a magical and mysterious place that is waiting to be explored. The singer is drawn out of her sleep by the moon, and she is kept awake by the thought of the adventures that await her.
Throughout the song, the moon is personified as a playful and mischievous character, who enjoys playing hide and seek with the singer. The moon draws obscure figures in the dark, making it difficult for the singer to see where she is running. The jungle of thoughts that the singer is lost in represents the complex world of emotions and ideas that we all have inside us. However, despite feeling lost and overwhelmed at times, the singer also feels incredibly alive, as she runs through the jungle of thoughts.
The lyrics of the chorus emphasize the idea that the moon is playing tricks on the singer. The moon feverishly unleashes the wildest dreams of the singer, drawing her ever deeper into the darkness. The moon also sings a siren song, just like the sirens of Greek mythology, who tempted sailors onto the rocks with their beautiful voices. This shows that the moon is a powerful force, that can easily lure the singer into dangerous situations.
