What's Going Under
the moon and monday Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To be on your back again
To poison all your friends
And if you did it today
You could have gold beyond your means
Get old but live the dream
Time to rearrange the little lines I've drawn
So I can't figure out what's going on
When you're on your back again
And what a perfect day
To take what you can get
And live without regret
But in a similar vein
All the blueprints that you leave
Crush us 'til we're free
Time it weighs heavy on your bedroom wall
Time to rearrange the little lines I've drawn
So I can't figure out what's going on
When you're on your back again
I heard it pays in spades
To be on your back again
To poison all your friends
The first verse of "What's Going Under" by To the Moon and the Sun seems to be exploring the idea of toxic behavior and the effects of it. The line "to be on your back again" suggests being in a position of submission or vulnerability, possibly to someone or something harmful. The phrase "poison all your friends" points to the idea that toxic behavior doesn't just hurt the person engaged in it but also those around them. The next line "if you did it today, you could have gold beyond your means, get old but live the dream," seems to be saying that even though toxic behavior may lead to short-term gains, in the long run it leads to emptiness and regret.
The chorus suggests a sense of confusion and a desire to make sense of things. "Time it weighs heavy on your bedroom wall" could suggest feeling trapped or stuck in one's current situation. "Time to rearrange the little lines I've drawn" points to the idea of needing to reevaluate one's perspective or priorities. But ultimately, the singer is unable to figure out "what's going on" which could reflect a sense of being lost or overwhelmed.
The second verse seems to suggest that even though toxic behavior may lead to short-term gains or "take what you can get," it ultimately leads to destruction and turmoil for oneself and those around them. "All the blueprints that you leave, crush us 'til we're free" could suggest that the toxic behavior leaves a lasting impact on others and can hinder their own freedom or growth.
Overall, "What's Going Under" seems to be exploring the idea of toxic behavior and the negative effects it has on oneself and others. The lyrics touch on the short-term gains that may be achieved through such behavior but ultimately leave the singer feeling lost and confused.

rises the moon Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Days seem sometimes as if they'll never end
Sun digs its heels to taunt you
But after sunlit days, one thing stays the same
Rises the moon
Days fade into a watercolour blur
Memories swim and haunt you
But look into the lake, shimmering like smoke
Rises the moon
[Chorus]
Oh-oh, close your weary eyes
I promise you that soon the autumn comes
To darken fading summer skies
Breathe, breathe, breathe
[Verse 2]
Days pull you down just like a sinking ship
Floating is getting harder
But tread the water child, and know that meanwhile
Rises the moon
Days pull you up just like a daffodil
Uprooted from its garden
They'll tell you what you owe, but know even so
Rises the moon
[Chorus]
You'll be visited by sleep
I promise you that soon the autumn comes
To steal away each dream you keep
Breathe, breathe, breathe..
Ik this is a lyric vid i want you all to read or sing the lyrics along with the lyric song

Rises the moon
Days pull you up just like a daffodil
Uprooted from its garden
They'll tell you what you owe, but know even so
Rises the moon
You'll be visited by sleep
I promise you that soon the autumn comes
