Full moon
Twilight Eclipse Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When the thorn bush turns white that's when I'll come home
I am going out to see what I can sow
And I don't know where I'll go
And I don't know what I'll see
But I'll try not to bring it back home with me

Like the morning sun your eyes will follow me
As you watch me wander, curse the powers that be
Cause all I want is here and now
But it's already been and gone
Our intentions always last that bit too long

Far far away
No voices sounding
No one around me
And you're still there
Far far away
No choices passing
No time confounds me
And you're still there

In the full moon's light I listen to the stream
And in between the silence hear you calling me
But I don't know where I am




And I don't trust who I've been
And If I come home how will I ever leave

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song “Full Moon” from Twilight Eclipse have a deeper meaning which revolves around life's ups and downs, being lost, and trying to find one’s way home. The opening lines "When the thorn bush turns white, that's when I'll come home. I am going out to see what I can sow" suggest that the singer is determined to forge ahead in life despite the inevitable pain it comes with. The thorn bush turning white is a metaphor for a difficult situation in life that will resolve itself with time, and when it does, the singer will return home.


The second stanza “… Like the morning sun, your eyes will follow me. As you watch me wander, curse the powers that be…” shows a sense of frustration and despair from perspective of the person watching the singer wander through life looking for ways to sow his seed. The singer acknowledges the fact that he has no clue what he's going to find or where he's going to go. All he knows is that he wants what’s here and now, but unfortunately, it's already been and gone. The bridge reveals the singer’s true feelings regarding their quest to find themselves. There is no sound, no voices, no one around, and choices are passing. The uncertainty of where the singer is, and the lack of trust he has for himself, makes it hard for him to come home.


The chorus, "Far far away, no voices sounding. No one around me and you're still there" represents the uncertainty and confusion of life. Despite being far away and having no one to talk to or confide in, the person still has a feeling of presence from the one they love. People can physically feel alone and wander through life alone but still have a sense of home and an emotional attachment to someone or somewhere.

In the books Edward was an exceptional fighter, because he could read your mind while fighting you and stay ahead of any attack. In the movie he did this.

@tompearce5418

Which makes Felix kicking his arse here all the more frightening. Felix is an ungifted vampire with physical size and thousands of years of martial arts training behind him.

@dianasykes7039

I hated that he looked so weak in the movies. After being so strong in the books. 😢

@coffeeaddictexpress5038

Well he says in the books that even he isn’t as fast as him. Man I loved these books! I read them every few years though, just for fun and great memories.

@RjZyon

Felix is one of the strongest vampires ever

This scene is just iconic. The set design, the costumes, the actors, the music, ah... It's all amazing. I don't even care. Call it cringey all you want, but the vibes are great and I love it.

@aurell0115

YEAH 🤍🥺

@tadd8210

The scene in the book was even more tense.

@nettietrees7238

I love the books, and the movies are fab. Love Twilight for its aesthetics
