Something Corporate: Me and The Moon Meaning

Me and The Moon Lyrics

It's a good year for a murder
She's praying to Jesus, she's pulling the trigger
There's no tears, cause he's not here
She washes her hands and she fixes the dinner,
But soon they'll be coming to rush her away
And no ones so sure if her crime...

   I think the song is about battered woman syndrome. She is in an abusive relationship and kills her husband, not because of one specific event but because of the life he has trapped her in. Now that her husband is dead she feels free, the lyrics "it's over, but just started" describes her freedom versus the beginning of a new part of her life where they will come and take her away for her crime.

   I think the song is about a women who is stuck in a bad relationship and it's driving her so insane that she chooses to kill herself, but make it look like a murder. But I think the song "foreshadows" (if that is the correct word), because they say that "the blood stains the carpet" and then they say she washes her hands and makes the dinner. I believe she makes dinner, and then shoots herself. And I also think the title "Me and the Moon", this girl thinks the moon is her only safe haven (keep in mind this relationship is making her nusty). This is just me though, everyone hears its differently.

   Yes, I guess in a way that can be true, but her heart like a crystal that means in cold and hardened not caring any more. She's lost her mind and her old self is lost now creating a new one and she can only remember the old her in her mind

   I agree, except I believe that the person she kills is herself because of this part:
   And it's over, but it just started
   The blood stained the carpet
   Her heart like a crystal
   She's lucid and departed
   A life left behind, she can find in her mind gone away

   This song appears to be about a woman trapped in a marriage she can't stand, so she murders her husband. But it's also about the feeling being trapped people have when confined to their daily routines with nothing happening in their lives. It also hints to the phoniness and bland sameness of Suburbia ("away with these nightmares, away with suburbia shakedown away..."). It's about feeling mentally trapped and that the only way out is to do something drastic because it's literally driving you insane.
