Starlight - Muse Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The ship is taking me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die
The starlight
I will be chasing a starlight
Until the end of my life
Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms
My life
You electrify my life
Let's conspire to ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive
Now I'll never let you go
If you promised not to fade away
Never fade away
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms
Far away
The ship is taking me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die
And I'll never let you go
If you promise not to fade away
Never fade away
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms
I just wanted to hold
"Starlight" by Muse, is a song about escape, adventure, and the possibility of a better, more exciting life beyond the confines of the mundane. The lyrics tell the story of the singer leaving behind the memories of people who don't care whether they live or die, and chasing after the starlight until the end of their life. They express uncertainty about whether or not the pursuit is worth it, but know that they must keep going. The singer also speaks about holding someone they love in their arms, and the electrifying effect they have on their life. They conspire to ignite the souls of those who would die for the chance to feel alive.
The chorus of the song has two lines that are repeated throughout the song "And I'll never let you go / If you promise not to fade away." This tells us that the singer has somebody special in their life that they don't want to lose. The song suggests that the hope and expectation for something more is what drives many people in life, but it doesn't always lead to black holes and revelations.
Overall, "Starlight" is a song about hope, love, the pursuit of adventure, and its ability to electrify our lives. The lyrics are poetic and evocative, motivating the listener to join in on the journey of chasing after the brightest star in the sky.
