"Sway Your Head" by We Shot The Moon

The song I chose for this week is "Sway Your Head" by We Shot The Moon. The band name, We Shot The Moon, also makes a reference to the card game, hearts, which is kind of where they got their band name from. We Shot The Moon started off in 2007. I love this song because of the lyrics and because it's really upbeat and fun. I think this song means that there will be times in life where you really want to give up. And there will be times where you think life sucks. I think the song says that when life gets hard you just have to hold your head up and live life. I also think it says that you have to remember all the good things in your life because there's way more good things in life than bad. And I also think it says that when you feel like giving up and never want to try again you won't succeed unless you throw yourself back into it again and try again. This is definately a good motivation song too!


Sway your head, move your feet, weigh yourself from the sleep
If there’s a day, there’s a way you can get yourself there
Golden smile, you got style that they can’t take away
Scream and shout, get it out before it swallows you
No surprise in these times, how it really comes through
All the walks and the thoughts but can you break through?
You’re alive, so alive, now c’mon

You gotta pull yourself back together
Give it one more shot, it’s now or never
With a new day calling for you, you gotta believe

Build a plan, yes you can, you got nothing to lose
Look around, up and down, what are you gonna choose?
Can you see the sunrise that came up for you?
You’re alive, so alive, now c’mon

You gotta pull yourself back together
Give it one more shot, it’s now or never
With a new day calling for you, you gotta believe
You gotta throw yourself back in the water
Take in one deep breath, you’re getting closer
After all, you’ve talked and seen
You gotta believe

I think it’s coming, I think it’s coming back
I think it’s coming back to me
I think it’s coming back, I think it’s coming back
I think it’s coming back to me

I feel I’m getting better
My world is getting better

You gotta pull yourself back together
Give it one more shot,  it’s now or never
With a new day calling for you, you gotta believe
You gotta throw yourself back in the water
Take in one deep breath, you’re getting closer
After all, you’ve talked and seen
You gotta believe

  1. When did this song come out? What album is it off of? What genre does this band play?

    I do like the message about getting back up and trying again, though.
