Moon Landing
Sivert Høyem Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you got it in for me
It's just fog and fantasy
We'll come to some understanding
(CHORUS))
I'm going to make this my own moon landing
I'm going to give this the best that I've got
It's our actual standing
I'm going to make this my own ..
I don't need no enemy
To keep me awake at night
No one 's gonna go for free
We'll travel very light
For now I've had enough from you
I'm done and so are you
Go see what you can do
The universe is expanding
(CHORUS)
I'm going to make this my own moon landing
I'm going to give this the best that I've got
You see right from the start we've been drifting apart
It's our actual standing
I'm going to make this my own ..
I don't need no enemy
To keep me awake at night
No one 's gonna go for free
We'll travel very light
For now I've had enough from you
I'm done and so are you
Go see what you can do
The universe is expanding
The silence is commanding ..
I'm going to make this my own moon landing
I'm going to give this the best that I've got
You see right from the start we've been drifting apart
It's our actual standing
I'm going to make this my own ..
The lyrics of Sivert Høyem's song "Moon Landing" describe a personal journey of perseverance and determination to achieve a goal despite adversity. The opening lines address an enemy, inviting them to reach an understanding: "Hold on my enemy! If you got it in for me, It's just fog and fantasy. We'll come to some understanding." This is followed by the chorus, where the singer declares his intention to give his all to succeed: "I'm going to make this my own moon landing, I'm going to give this the best that I've got." The emphasis is on personal responsibility and self-reliance, as the singer declares that he doesn't need an enemy to keep him awake at night or weigh him down: "No one's gonna go for free, we'll travel very light."
The second verse further elaborates on the importance of letting go of negative influences and moving forward: "For now I've had enough from you, I'm done and so are you. Go see what you can do, the universe is expanding." The final chorus repeats the message of determination and self-determination, as the singer pledges to chart his own course: "You see right from the start we've been drifting apart, It's our actual standing. I'm going to make this my own." The final lines evoke a sense of awe and wonder, as the singer contemplates the vastness of the universe: "The silence is commanding." Overall, the lyrics of "Moon Landing" are a deeply personal and inspiring call to action, encouraging the listener to overcome obstacles and pursue their dreams with courage and conviction.

Hold on my enemy!
Stay put, my opponent!
If you got it in for me
If you have a grudge against me
It's just fog and fantasy
Your animosity is unfounded and unreal
We'll come to some understanding
We'll eventually work things out
I'm going to make this my own moon landing
I'll succeed in achieving my goal
I'm going to give this the best that I've got
I'll devote my full effort into this
You see right from the start we've been drifting apart
We've been growing apart since the beginning
It's our actual standing
This is our current situation
I don't need no enemy
I don't require an adversary
To keep me awake at night
To cause me anxiety at night
No one 's gonna go for free
No one will escape without consequences
We'll travel very light
We'll journey with minimal baggage
For now I've had enough from you
At this point, I've had my fill of you
I'm done and so are you
I'm finished and so are you
Go see what you can do
Go discover your potential
The universe is expanding
The cosmos is constantly growing and evolving
The silence is commanding
The stillness is controlling
I'm going to make this my own moon landing
I'll take ownership of my success
I'm going to give this the best that I've got
I'll give it my all
You see right from the start we've been drifting apart
We've been gradually separating since the beginning
It's our actual standing
This is our present position

@famousunknown
Sivert is a fucking great talent and teaming up with John Agnello is a brilliant move! I spent some time watching Agnello at work producing Mark Lanegan's 'Field Songs' and he is the best. If there is any justice this album will be huge!
