Let's take a blast to the moon baby
I sit around wishing you well
how I'm craving you, yeah!
Every time I'm near you
I always wanna swallow you down
I'll be right here if ya' need me
In my life, I'll need you here, don't ask why
I'll never disappear
why is it everyday that I feel the pain?
Let's take a trip to the stars far away
where were you when I was down?
Staring into the dead
my pain is caused by my pleasure
my soul mate lives in your body
I can't get you out of my head
It never goes away
In my life I'll need you here, don't ask why
I'll never disappear
In your eyes you can bid me farwell
but don't ever try to understand the situation
why is it everyday that I feel the pain?
It always comes when I least expect it
when I'm looking for love
always seem to be regretting it
Why is it everyday that I feel the pain?
Bleh listening to it more sounds like "I always said I'd never feel this way again, but I just keep making the same fucking mistakes over and over and over... I can't believe I thought this would be over"

This song means that he found it, what we all look for, a real feeling of passionate love on every level for someone and it can only be explained if she was indeed his soul mate. For whatever reason, they cannot be together but that does not mean that the thoughts or the love he feels for her ever stops. Sadly for them, it is an impossible love and he knows it. In a desperate attempt to be with her, he suggests taking a trip far away from the reality that keeps them apart but she won’t go. He desperately wants her to know that what he feels is real. He wants her to know that she is tattooed in his brain. He wants her to know that he wants her by his side when times are hard wondering why it can’t be in her arms, close to her heart, that he finds refuge in his dark times. He wants to offer her the same support, that she may find refuge in his arms, close to his heart at well. He has all these good wishes for her. He wants her to know that he desires not only her body but also her soul. When he’s in the same room with her no matter what time of day, she becomes his full moon baby driving him to lunacy with love. He tries to make her understand when she asks what is happening that there is no explanation for what is taking place in his heart or in his head. He wants her to know that he’ll be there if she calls and that he’ll wait for her forever if he has to even though the pain of being without her makes his body physically ache. His ache then turns to anger that makes him regret what he can’t help feeling, that burning, crazy, in-love feeling he had forbidden himself to feel again. Even though he tries to fight himself and this feeling of love at the end of the song, he knows he can’t fight the way he feels. When he sees her again, he knows his heart will melt because it’s all real and it makes him prisoner to a feeling of pleasure for loving her followed by pain because he knows she can’t be by his side.
@Moon Baby This is a beautiful explanation of the song and one that holds the most true for me. Wish I had taken my leap of faith when the moment was right... because I thought the moment wasn't right... I will now suffer, even in the grave.

@Moon Baby nothing...absolutely nothing can stop a love like this. F@#k what ppl say. F@#k what ppl think or believe. Because to pass up this kind of pure love would truly be the greatest tragedy!

Maybe it's because he has this vision of the perfect woman and goes out seeking her but can never find her so she just lives in his head in a fantasy world. He just wants to travel to the stars with her, he can do anything with her because she doesn't exist.
I don't know, I just a thought.
Pff, Ok, I thought I had this one, but I'm not sure.
Facts: -Godsmack are into spirituality and voodoo. -The Moon is a metaphor for Madness. -The song is spilt into a part with lyrics and the awesome instrumental frenzy part.
"The Moon is tought to transform some people into strange people into strange creatures that drive others MAD"...(First Man on the moon) "...or is it all just Lunacy".
Could this be about the all old Werewolves story of being incapable of being near a loved one, because of the danger? "..How I'm craving you" "Every time I'm near you, I always want to swallow you down"
Or about going insane with somehow unreachable love? "Let's take a TRIP to the MOON, baby"
It sounds really confusing, he's asking all kinds of questions "why is it everyday that I feel the pain?" "where were you when I was down?" But tells the one he's talking to not to ask why he needs (her/it?), because he'll go away if he knows.(Go mad?)
Some more info on that serie "Mysterious Forces Beyond" could be very helpful indeed. Apparently the program was hosted by a guy named Nick Mancuso. An actor who had studied psychology before going on professional acting. The clips have to be from the "We are not alone" episode, which covers: Angels, Ghosts and....Vampires!
So, we've come closer! It's about Vampires and their lust for love, and the tragedy of having to drink and ultimately kill your loved one. And it all makes sense in a sudden!
The description comes with a quote: "Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like vampires, but do they really exist?" And so,"Moon Baby" is the "part 1" of "Vampires" featuring on their follow up album "Awake" Listen to them after one another, for an amazing experience.
Sorry for the long post, but I think was worth it.
hey offdutyninja17, FUCK YOU! u know nothing about godsmack u bible-holdin' fuckin' prick. how is godsmack satanic? "LOOK AT THERE NAME!" there name came from either the cold sore story, or from the song God Smack by the greatest band ever, Alice In Chains. don't judge a book by it's cover asshole. they don't write about the devil. sully writes about himself. the only song not about himself is voodoo which he said is about some movie i can't think of write now cuz i'm too pissed off. fuck u douche bag!
sorry bout bout that every1, but people like that piss me off
I think it's about a girl that he loves with all his heart, but he doesn't know if she feels that way about him too. and he's too shy to ask her if she loves him or to tell her he loves her. that's wut i get out of it cuz i'm goin thru that now.
Has any1 seen them play this live. it's even better. and when the intrumental part kicks in the pit goes fuckin ape shit! they gotta put out a live album.
