I think the symbolism in this song is relatively straightforward. The protagonist is away from someone special; their absence leaves their world "desert gray" and he can "never see the day...there's only night." The line "to fall so fast and feel the burn" and his general croon throughout the chorus leads me to believe he's missing his lover.
The melody is relatively simple, and the haunting strings really do well to reinforce the feeling of being lost on the moon (or at least in some barren scape, devoid of feeling). Another beautiful song from Sheik, even if it's not groundbreaking. His songs are well-crafted, and I love his lyrics. This one's especially important to me though. :)
