Story
The song is about being trapped in inner darkness, haunted by pain, secrets, and isolation. The dark side of the moon symbolizes a place without light or escape, but in the end, the narrator rises from the ashes and breaks the chains of despair.
Whispers crawl beneath my skin
Darkness waits to drag me in
The stars bear witness, cold and still
To secrets bound by shattered will
The mirror bleeds a fractured face
Reflections lost in time and space
A voice inside begins to croon
Calling from the dark side of the moon
On the dark side of the moon – where shadows reign
Where silence screams and echoes pain
No dawn, no light, no sweet escape
Just endless night and fractured fate
On the dark side of the moon – I stand alone
A fallen star, far from home
The cold takes hold, a deathless flame
A fire that burns without a name
No path, no prayer, no silver rune
Just shadows on the dark side of the moon
I walk the line where nightmares bite
Between the dark and dying light
A choir wails in ghostly tune
Singing from the dark side of the moon
On the dark side of the moon – where hope is gone
Where every breath becomes a song
Of loss, of fire, of stars undone
A requiem for everyone
On the dark side of the moon – I rise again
From ash and void – I break the chain
