Walk The Moon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Around me but I
I feel the same inside
I'm getting older
Not getting wiser
It's got me up all night
That everybody
Wants the same things
Running in circles
Hunting hunters
Hurry up and wait in line
I just want to meet somebody
All night, all night
It's a wild life
Now I'm looking for a ride home
All night, all night
It's a wild life
Now I'm looking for a ride home
Long hours
Until the sun sets
And then I call my friends
Wash the dirt off
Button your shirt up
Do it all over again
Can you tell me
Is it really worth it
To stick it out in line?
How will I answer
When I look back?
How did I spend my time?
I just want to meet somebody
All night, all night
It's a wild life
Now I'm looking for a ride home
All night, all night
It's a wild life
Now I'm looking for a ride home
Are you the one who will take me there?
Are you the one who will treat me right?
I'm not afraid of your bluest flame
Been burnt before but I'm roaring inside
Are you the one who will take me there?
Are you the one who will treat me right?
I'm not afraid of your bluest flame
Been burnt before but I'm roaring inside
I just want, I just want to meet somebody
I just want, I just want, I just want to meet somebody
I just want, I just want, I just want to meet somebody
All night, all night
It's a wild life
Now I'm looking for a ride home
All night, all night
It's a wild life
Now I'm looking for a ride home
Are you the one who will take me there?
Are you the one who will treat me right?
I'm not afraid of your bluest flame
Been burnt before but I'm roaring inside
Are you the one who will take me there?
Are you the one who will treat me right?
I'm not afraid of your bluest flame
Been burnt before but I'm roaring inside
"Things are changing
Around me but I
I feel the same inside
I'm getting older
Not getting wiser
It's got me up all night”
The above lyrics refer to the internal struggle of understanding the constant changes in life while the internal feelings remain the same. The singer is struggling to come to terms with the fact that they are getting older but not gaining any more knowledge or wisdom. It is keeping the singer up at night, as they contemplate the cyclical nature of life.
“That everybody
Wants the same things
At the same damn time
Running in circles
Hunting hunters
Hurry up and wait in line”
The second verse of the song talks about the peer pressure of leading a certain lifestyle. Everyone wants the same thing, and it feels like they are all running in circles, hunting each other. Despite their efforts to get ahead in life, everyone is still standing in the same line.
The song ultimately expresses the singer’s desire to find someone to share their life with. This is emphasized in the lyrics “I just want to meet somebody/All night, all night/It's a wild life/Now I'm looking for a ride home.” The song is a reminder that despite the chaos and struggles of life, we all crave human connection and companionship.
Line by Line Meaning
Things are changing
The circumstances around me are evolving
Around me but I
Despite my surroundings,
I feel the same inside
I am still experiencing the same emotions internally
I'm getting older
I am aging
Not getting wiser
However, I am not becoming any more knowledgeable
It's got me up all night
This realization is keeping me awake at night
That everybody
The universal truth is that everyone
Wants the same things
Desires similar things in life
At the same damn time
At the exact same moment
Running in circles
Going around in circles
Hunting hunters
Pursuing people who are in the same situation as me
Hurry up and wait in line
Rushing to get in line and then needing to wait
I just want to meet somebody
I simply yearn to connect with someone
All night, all night
Throughout the entire night
It's a wild life
Life is unpredictable and chaotic
Now I'm looking for a ride home
I am searching for a way back to familiarity and comfort
Long hours
A great deal of time
Until the sun sets
From morning until evening
And then I call my friends
Afterwards, I reach out to my companions
Wash the dirt off
Cleanse myself from the day's labor
Button your shirt up
Get dressed up
Do it all over again
Repeat the same routine
Can you tell me
Could you explain to me
Is it really worth it
Is the effort truly worth the result
To stick it out in line?
To remain patient while waiting
How will I answer
How will I respond in hindsight
When I look back?
Upon reflecting on my life
How did I spend my time?
How did I use my time on Earth
Are you the one who will take me there?
Will you be the person to guide me
Are you the one who will treat me right?
Will you treat me with respect and kindness
I'm not afraid of your bluest flame
I am not intimidated by your fiery passion
Been burnt before but I'm roaring inside
Although I have been hurt in the past, I am still resilient and strong
I just want, I just want to meet somebody
All I truly desire is to make a connection with another person

Why in this song I prefer more the verses than the chorus? Actually the deep distorted guitar that plays as a bass in the verses, attract me a lot. This happens with some songs I listen, the verses sounds more stronger than the choruses. But I really love this song as the other tracks in the record 🎸
