Lyrics
On this side of the moon I walk in a constant state of dark
Walking in a constant state of darkness on this side of the moon.
I've got to do better than this
Expressing a need for personal improvement.
I've got to do better than this
Reiterating the desire for self-improvement.
If there's one thing I've learned it's keep your head down and you won't get burned
Emphasizing the importance of keeping a low profile to avoid negative consequences.
You can only get by out here
Surviving or succeeding in challenging circumstances.
Yes I've got to get out of here
Expressing a strong need to escape or improve the current situation.
It seems as though I've lived my life on the bad side of the moon, just...
Reflecting on a life spent facing challenges and difficulties.
Walking around with my eyes closed
Metaphorically walking through life with a lack of awareness or understanding.
Stumbling in holes and kicking stones with my thoughts on the other side
Encountering obstacles and challenges while being preoccupied with thoughts of a better life.
On the better side of the moon
Referencing a desirable, improved side of life on the metaphorical "better side of the moon."
Gaining character's a balancing act and it's pretty hard to keep in tact when you're trying for the other side
Highlighting the difficulty of maintaining one's character while striving for a better life.
The better side of the moon
Reiterating the concept of a preferable life on the better side of the moon.
It seems as though I've lived my life on the bad side of the moon, just...
Repeating the sentiment of living a challenging life on the bad side of the moon.
Make mistakes but always learn new things that will keep me firm on a track to a better side
Acknowledging the importance of learning from mistakes for personal growth.
A better side of the moon
Expressing the hope for a better, improved side of life.
It ain't easy to dig Moon gold and stay warm despite the cold but I've gotta do better than this
Metaphorically digging for valuable experiences (Moon gold) despite the challenges.
I know I can do better than this
Affirming the belief in the ability to improve and do better in life.
It seems as though I've lived my life on the bad side of the moon, just...
Repeating the overarching theme of living a challenging life on the bad side of the moon.
