Artist said about this song:

"This is the first song I wrote for the EP, long before I thought about releasing my songs at all.

It’s about the heavy air between two people when there are so many things to be said but you don’t. About being the one who has to make things move.

I wrote the first draft of this song sitting on the floor in the basement of my family’s house in Horten during my last year of high school. I think it was October, and I had started practicing yoga a few months earlier. My yoga teacher would adjust the classes according to the moon cycles, and I was so fascinated by that and the moon in general. I was reading about the different meanings of the moon as a symbol, and found it so interesting how pretty much all cultures have their own interpretation of what the moon symbolizes.

In the song, I think of the moon as what makes the tides move. But also the moon as this intuitive and feminine force. And water as emotions and the unknown. Since the moon is such an open symbol it could mean pretty much anything, and I love how the lyrics might mean something completely different to someone else.

I recorded everything myself and then sent it over to Amelia Thornton, a violinist from Montana (she also plays violin and viola on Woodlands), who played some beautiful violin parts as well mandolin over it." - Louise Weseth
