rises the moon
Liana Flores Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
Oh close your weary eyes
I promise you that soon the autumn comes
To darken fading summer skies
Breathe, breathe, breathe
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
You'll be visited by sleep
I promise you that soon the autumn comes
To steal away each dream you keep
Breathe, breathe, breathe
The song "Rises the Moon" by Liana Flores talks about the cyclic nature of life and how no matter how hopeless or difficult things may seem, the moon will always rise. The opening lines of the song describe the monotony of life, where days can sometimes seem never-ending, and the sun appears to mock and taunt the listener. However, the chorus talks about the one constant in life, the moon that rises every day, even after a sunlit day. The moon symbolizes hope, and the fact that it rises every day can be interpreted as a message of resilience and perseverance.
The second verse of the song talks about how memories can sometimes be murky and haunting, but even in such moments, the moon shines bright, reflected in the shimmering lake. The moon also brings with it the assurance of autumn, a time of change and transition, which can sometimes be difficult but is ultimately necessary for growth. The third verse of the song paints the pictures of a sinking ship, talking about how days can pull one down, but the chorus reassures the listener that the moon is still rising, in spite of everything. The final lines of the song describe how, even in dreams, the listener will be visited by the moon.
Overall, "Rises the Moon" is a song that encourages one to hang on, no matter how difficult things might seem, and to take comfort in the knowledge that the moon will always rise.
Line by Line Meaning
Days seem sometimes as if they'll never end
Some days feel as if they go on forever
Sun digs its heels to taunt you
The sun feels like it's mocking you by staying out so long
But after sunlit days, one thing stays the same
No matter what, the moon always comes after the sun
Rises the moon
The moon comes up after the sun goes down
Days fade into a watercolour blur
Days start to blend together into a hazy memory
Memories swim and haunt you
The memories become overwhelming
But look into the lake, shimmering like smoke
Take a moment to appreciate the beauty around you
Oh close your weary eyes
Rest when you need it
I promise you that soon the autumn comes
Things will get better in time
To darken fading summer skies
Fall will come and bring a new season
Breathe, breathe, breathe
Take a moment to just breathe
Days pull you down just like a sinking ship
Some days can feel like you're drowning
Floating is getting harder
It's becoming more difficult to stay afloat
But tread the water child, and know that meanwhile
Keep going, things will improve while you wait
Days pull you up just like a daffodil
Other days can make you feel uplifted
Uprooted from its garden
Even when good things happen, it can be a shock
They'll tell you what you owe, but know even so
Others will try to take important things from you, but remember to keep moving forward
You'll be visited by sleep
Rest will come eventually
To steal away each dream you keep
The dreams you hold on to will fade away with time

rises the moon Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Days seem sometimes as if they'll never end
Sun digs its heels to taunt you
But afterβ sunlitβ days, one thingβ stays the same
Rises the moon
Days fadeβ 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
