Provocations Of Starman Jr.
Wolftron Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

At the edge of where this love can grow,
I watched you pray for a better life.
And I, I can't understand everything you sing.
But I'm trying hard to be something for you.

I marked my skin with words I need last winter while you were asleep.
I don't understand everything I've seen,
But I'm trying hard to make sense of things.

Blue moon where are you today?
Blue moon we need you to stay.
Come show your face.

Oh, will we ever find?
Oh, what you call a better life.





Blue moon where are you today?
Blue moon we need you to stay

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Wolftron's song Provocations Of Starman Jr. express a sense of longing and yearning for something more - a better life, a deeper understanding of the world and love. The singer is watching someone they care about pray for a better life and while they may not understand everything that person is experiencing, they are trying their best to be supportive and present. The line "I marked my skin with words I need last winter while you were asleep" suggests a moment of introspection and reflection, perhaps in the form of self-harm, as a means of coping with the difficulties of life. The chorus represents the repeated call for a blue moon, a symbol of rare beauty and a beacon of hope. The final lines of the chorus, "Oh, will we ever find? Oh, what you call a better life" encapsulate the driving force behind the song - the quest for a better existence and the uncertainty of whether or not it can ever truly be achieved.

You can hear a woman's voice in the background speaking to a child in Korean. Maybe this song is dedicated to his mother? So sweet....
