Moonwatchers
Embracing Lunar Secrets: A Night of Absinthe and Moonlit Revelry
Lyrics
I was there
I had a presence or experience
Was there when this moon secured control of tides and seas
Observed the moon gaining influence over tides and seas
Then demanded bats and owls and more night beasts like these
Noticed the moon's demand for nocturnal creatures like bats and owls
I was there
Reiterates the narrator's presence or experience
Witnessed when she climbed the sky and fell back down again
Witnessed the moon's ascent and descent, possibly symbolizing cycles
Watched the way, while she was full, torn minds would turn insane
Noticed the impact of the full moon on the human mind
Embrace the darkness
Encourages embracing darkness
Welcome the night
Invites a positive reception of the night
Drink my health with absinthe in the moonlight
Suggests celebrating the narrator's well-being with absinthe in moonlight
I was there
Reiterates the narrator's presence or experience
As a child, watching moonbeams dance on slumber's cover
Recalls childhood memories of moonbeams and their impact on sleep
Saw her dreamy light unite loner with a lover
Describes the moon's dreamy light bringing people together
I was there
Reiterates the narrator's presence or experience
When my moon and midnight met and celebrated mass
Celebrated a significant event when the moon and midnight met
Knew her hue of deepest blue could never come to pass
Believed the moon's unique shade of blue would endure
Embrace the darkness
Encourages embracing darkness
Welcome the night
Invites a positive reception of the night
Drink my health with absinthe in the moonlight
Suggests celebrating the narrator's well-being with absinthe in moonlight
And I am here
The narrator is currently present
Man in moon
Refers to the man in the moon
See him shine
Highlights the moon's brightness
Feel him stretch my face and spine
Suggests a personal connection with the moon affecting the narrator physically
Man in me made lupine
Describes a transformation into a wolf-like state
Grey fur coats this form of mine
Details the appearance of grey fur on the narrator's transformed self
Embrace the darkness
Encourages embracing darkness
Welcome the night
Invites a positive reception of the night
Toast your soul with absinthe in the moonlight
Suggests celebrating the narrator's well-being with absinthe in moonlight
Where spectral moonlight conjures its ghosts and ghouls
Describes a place where moonlight creates illusions of ghosts and ghouls
And vampire gangs craving blood comb city streets
Depicts a scene of vampire gangs seeking blood in city streets
Embrace the darkness
Encourages embracing darkness
Welcome the night
Invites a positive reception of the night
Drink my health with absinthe in the moonlight
Suggests celebrating the narrator's well-being with absinthe in moonlight
