about

Kingdom on the moon is about a broken relationship. About doing everything for someone (like, for example, building an entire kingdom on the moon...), wanting and trying to be everything they need, everything they want. But not getting anything in return.
It is also the song that inspired the album art. I had the idea but my good friend Lois Holmström made the design come to life.

lyrics

I built a kingdom on the moon
Comets made a fortress
And the stars are my warriors
My bed is an empty mattress

I built a kingdom on the moon
I placed it there for you
I waited one, three, two
And you came walking though

All I did was try
I didn’t mean to imply
That you wanted to
Stay

All I did was try
To offer you the sky
I didn't know why
You wouldn’t want it

I wanted to be
I wanted to be
I wanted to be all you’d ever need
I wanted to be
I wanted to be
All you’d every need

I built a kingdom on the moon
Planted roses in the gardens
But you just picked the thorns
And threw away the flowers

I lit a fire in every room
And told you all my secrets
You grabbed the ashes and the flames
Though they weren’t yours to claim

All I did was try
I didn’t mean to imply
That you wanted to
Stay

All I did was try
To offer you the sky
I didn't know why
You wouldn’t want it

I wanted to be
I wanted to be
I wanted to be all you’d ever need
I wanted to be
I wanted to be
All you’d every need

In the darkness and the chaos and the ashes of your reign
The stars were calling for me to come back home again
I watched you fall
I watched you burn
I watched the walls you built come down
Down

I wanted to be
I wanted to be
I wanted to be all you’d ever need
I wanted to be
I wanted to be
All you’d every need
I wanted to be
I wanted to be
I wanted to be all you’d ever need
I wanted to be
I wanted to be
