Flowers on the Moon Lyrics – AJ Mitchell
Flowers on the Moon Song Lyrics
[Verse 1: AJ Mitchell]
Two hearts gone cold, some things don't grow
Your hands in mine, like leaves in snow
Like sun and rain, we just can't be
You're what I want, not what I need
[Chorus: AJ Mitchell]
So tell me how long can we live on like this?
You're the smoke in my lungs and the scars on my skin, oh
All the air in this room, it's been wearing down thin
It's sad, but it's true
'Cause we're beautiful but we just won't make it through
Baby, you and I, we're like flowers on the moon
[Verse 2: AJ Mitchell]
We've tried so hard to make this work
Pretending fire doesn't burn
We could play fools, ignore the cracks
But darling, we dance on fragile glass
Oh-oh-oh-oh
[Chorus: AJ Mitchell]
So tell me how long can we live on like this?
You're the smoke in my lungs and the scars on my skin, oh
All the air in this room, it's been wearing down thin
It's sad, but it's true
'Cause we're beautiful but we just won't make it through
Baby, you and I, we're like flowers on the moon
[Bridge: AJ Mitchell]
(Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
I can't grow next to you (Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Can't breathe these toxic fumes
High over the clouds, we're jumping without a parachute
'Cause if I fall, then you will fall too
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Chorus: AJ Mitchell]
So tell me how long can we live on like this?
You're the smoke in my lungs and the scars on my skin, oh
All the air in this room, it's been wearing down thin
It's sad, but it's true
'Cause we're beautiful but we just won't make it through
'Cause we're beautiful but won't ever bloom
Baby, you and I, we're like flowers on the moon
Flowers On The Moon Lyrics Explained
The lyrics of "Flowers on the Moon" by AJ Mitchell talks about a relationship that is struggling to survive despite efforts to make it work. The lyrics explore themes of feeling suffocated, being unable to grow, and ultimately realizing that the relationship is not sustainable. The imagery of "flowers on the moon" symbolizes the impossibility of flourishing in an environment that lacks the necessary elements for growth.
[Verse 1]
The first verse describes how the love between the two individuals has grown cold, and despite being together, they feel distant like leaves in the snow. The comparison of their relationship to "sun and rain" suggests that despite their differences, they cannot coexist harmoniously. The singer expresses a desire for the person they want, but not necessarily the person they need.
[Chorus]
The chorus reflects on the toxicity of the relationship. The metaphor of the person being "the smoke in my lungs and the scars on my skin" illustrates how their presence is harmful. The air in the room symbolizes the suffocating atmosphere of their love, which is deteriorating. Despite acknowledging their beauty together, the singer realizes that they are unlikely to survive as a couple.
[Verse 2]
In the second verse, the singer acknowledges the efforts they've made to salvage the relationship, but it's clear that pretending problems don't exist only leads to more pain. They could ignore the signs of trouble, but it would only lead to dancing on fragile glass, risking further damage.
[Bridge]
The bridge emphasizes the impossibility of growth and the toxicity of the relationship. The singer feels unable to thrive alongside their partner and compares their situation to jumping without a parachute. The fear of falling and taking their partner down with them highlights the entanglement and codependency present in their relationship.
[Chorus]
