"Escape to the Moon" is a reflection on escapist coping mechanisms. While seeking refuge in fantasies or distant dreams can provide temporary solace, the implications of continually turning away from reality are bleak. My hope is that this song invites listeners to contemplate the consequences of escapism not only for individuals but for society as a whole. The balance between dealing with the realities of the present and the human inclination to seek comfort in idealized sanctuaries is a difficult one but I hope this song feels like a blanket for the brain for those who wish to embark. I wrote this song in 2020 when the world was shut down and I hope it carries meaning for others the way it does for me.
