A Beginners Guide To Destroying The Moon

[Intro]     [Verse 1] I can’t blame you and I can’t save you But I will try For you and I for you and I- won’t find out all the dirty little things that you’ve done But I will try I I [Pre-Chorus 1] I’m coming for you giants and you liars and your chariots of fire You charmers with your anecdotes have started to show your true colors [Chorus] And now I’m staring at the moon wondering why the bottom fell out Been searching for answers and there’s questions I’ve found Open your eyes and share this burden somehow Are you ready to drink or are you waiting to drown? [Interlude] [Verse 2] I would break you before I let you fall into the blind                            C/G here (rhythm change) For you and I for you and I will breathe in all the truth I can stomach If it keeps you alive I I [Pre-Chorus 2] We’ve changed the dreamers and the preachers and the wise men on the hill To concrete stepping smilers terrified to lose their power and control Yeah we’ve been crying for a leader to speak like the old prophets The blood of the forgotten wasn’t spilled without a purpose or was it? [Chorus] And now I’m staring at the moon wondering why the bottom fell out Been searching for answers and there’s questions I’ve found Open your eyes and share this burden somehow Are you ready to drink or are you waiting to drown?                                                                   [Outro] Yeah you’ll never be whole yeah you’ll never be whole Until you lose control And think freely to smash the wall of apathy Stop your self-importance and lift the weight off somebody else   Yeah you’ll never be whole yeah you’ll never be whole Until you lose control And stop drinking the wine that’s been dripping From lips of the gluttons and envying their bloody teeth Yeah you’ll never be whole yeah you’ll never be whole Until you lose control                      (Fade out with A/Db)

Cette chanson évoque une lutte intérieure face aux manipulations et aux mensonges. Le narrateur se sent pris entre le désir d'aider et la frustration de ne pas pouvoir sauver l'autre. En contemplant la lune, il se pose des questions sur sa propre quête de vérité et de sens, tout en invitant à ouvrir les yeux sur la réalité. Le contexte est marqué par une critique des personnes en position de pouvoir, qui, par leur égoïsme, freinent un véritable changement. L'idée centrale tourne autour de la nécessité de lâcher prise, de se libérer des anciennes croyances et de transcender la superficialité pour atteindre une véritable profondeur spirituelle et humaine.
