Lyrics
I-yi-I would rob the moon tonight
I would steal the moon tonight
Put stars right in my eyes
Desire to dazzle or impress, symbolized by putting stars in the eyes
If that would make you mine
Expressing willingness to do anything to make someone theirs
I-yi-I would never let you go
Commitment to never let go of the person
If my hand is what you chose
Expressing commitment and loyalty if chosen
I would honor its hold
Willingness to honor the relationship and its responsibilities
Don't want this feeling, feeling to settle down
Resisting the idea of settling into a routine or comfort
I sense it changing, changing as fast as it came around
Noticing a change in emotions or circumstances
Is this real or built from butterflies?
Questioning the reality of emotions, pondering if they are like butterflies
Should I trust the appeal of a forever-kind?
Doubt about trusting the appeal of a long-lasting commitment
If we go all in and out, will we end up sinking down
Fear of potential failure in a deep commitment
To the bottom, with the collectibles
Imagining sinking to the bottom with emotional baggage
Are you more than a memento oh?
Questioning the significance of the person in memories
More than a memento oh
Reiterating the uncertainty about the person's lasting impact
I-yi-I wish I knew that a promise would never fade
Expressing a desire for a lasting promise
I'd twist my pinkies until they break
Willingness to endure hardship for commitment
In commitment's vain
Acknowledging challenges in maintaining commitments
I-yi-I wish I wasn't so scared every breath that I breathe
Admitting fear and insecurity in the relationship
Every secret I share is bound to make you leave
Fear of sharing secrets and the impact on the relationship
I'm working, please believe
Emphasizing dedication and hard work in the relationship
Don't want this feeling, feeling to settle down
Resisting settling into a comfortable routine
I sense it changing, changing as fast as it came around
Observing the fast-changing nature of emotions or situations
Is this real or built from butterflies?
Reflecting on the origin of emotions, questioning their reality
Should I trust the appeal of a forever-kind?
Doubting the reliability of long-lasting commitments
If we go all in and out, will we end up sinking down
Fear of sinking or failing in a committed relationship
To the bottom, with the collectibles
Imagining sinking to the bottom with emotional baggage
Are you more than a memento oh?
Questioning the lasting significance of the person in memories
More than a memento oh
Reiterating uncertainty about the person's lasting impact
And maybe it's me
Introspection, contemplating personal flaws or brokenness
Maybe I'm broken, too far gone, the real reason that I can't
Feeling too damaged or distant, potentially affecting sleep
Sleep, but I don't wanna be
Expressing a desire not to be in this state
Is this real or built from butterflies?
Repeating questions about the reality of emotions
Should I trust the appeal of a forever-kind?
Doubt about trusting the appeal of a long-lasting commitment
If we go all in and out, will we end up sinking down
Fear of potential failure in a deep commitment
To the bottom, with the collectibles
Imagining sinking to the bottom with emotional baggage
Are you more than a memento oh?
Questioning the significance of the person in memories
More than a memento oh
Reiterating uncertainty about the person's lasting impact
