From The Sky
Gojira Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

At the very first sound
There was just light
And then, a storm of time and space just came and struck
Created our time
In water life
We understand, just only began

Forced to look to the sky
And wonder why
We cannot face the fact that we're all scared now
Of mysteries of life
There is a mask that soon will fall
Before the strong embrace of love and might
Of light in the dark

I go for a quest
I have to give myself the answer
Enter now this place in the wild
I can see the glade
My feeling now is growing bigger

From the sky

From the sky

I do feel like no one can save me
I am so alone and yet I cried
I called for help, forsaken
But now I know the only was is to understand the living
Obey the rule of light and face the fear
Inside out

Lost, I found there a stone
Erected in line
With one the brightest stars
Of all the night sky vaults
And I took my time
Took off the moss
Washed away the dust and gave a new lease of life
Its mystical force
I grab it now
And praise this lord of earth and stone
Make passage for souls awaken
So it returns
To where it's always been, with the gods
Now coming, I feel the love
It comes from on high

I know the words
But now I feel it inside
It grows, it's there
And all, it comes
From the sky
From the sky

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Gojira's song "From The Sky" paint a picture of the creation of the universe, and our place within it. The opening lines describe the "storm of time and space" that gave birth to our existence. The formation of water and life on Earth is mentioned next, followed by the realization that humanity has developed an unshakable fear of life's mysteries. The song then becomes more personal, as the singer embarks on a quest for understanding and calls out for help.


The singer eventually comes across a stone that is aligned with a bright star, which they recognize as a "lord of earth and stone." By praising this object and creating a "passage for souls awaken," the singer appears to find a sense of peace and connection to the universe.


Line by Line Meaning

At the very first sound
At the beginning of creation


There was just light
Only light existed at the start of creation


And then, a storm of time and space just came and struck
An event occurred that brought time and space into existence


Created our time
The event created the concept of time for us


In water life
Life began in water


We understand, just only began
Our understanding of the universe is still at its infancy


Forced to look to the sky
We are impelled to look at the sky and search for answers


And wonder why
We question our existence and purpose


We cannot face the fact that we're all scared now
We refuse to admit that we are afraid of the unknown


Of mysteries of life
The mysteries of life perplex us


There is a mask that soon will fall
A revelation is about to occur


Before the strong embrace of love and might
An intense feeling of love and power will take over


Of light in the dark
Hope in times of darkness


I go for a quest
I set out to find answers


I have to give myself the answer
I am the only one who can provide the answers I seek


Enter now this place in the wild
I venture into the wilderness to find what I am looking for


I can see the glade
I glimpse a clearing


My feeling now is growing bigger
My intuition is becoming more intense


From the sky
The answer comes from the heavens


From the sky
Reaffirmation that the answer is divine


I do feel like no one can save me
I feel alone and vulnerable


I am so alone and yet I cried
I am emotional despite being alone


I called for help, forsaken
I reached out for assistance but got none


But now I know the only way is to understand the living
My only way forward is to comprehend life


Obey the rule of light and face the fear
Follow the path of goodness and bravery


Inside out
Deep within myself, I get the answers


Lost, I found there a stone
I was lost but discovered a stone


Erected in line
Standing in alignment


With one the brightest stars
In close proximity to the brightest star


Of all the night sky vaults
In the vast expanse of the night sky


And I took my time
I acted patiently


Took off the moss
I removed the moss that obstructed my object of interest


Washed away the dust and gave a new lease of life
I cleaned it up and restored its existence to a purposeful state


Its mystical force
Its inexplicable energy


I grab it now
I held onto it firmly


And praise this lord of earth and stone
I express admiration for the natural forces that brought the stone into existence


Make passage for souls awaken
Open doors for awakened spirits to pass through


So it returns
It goes back to its origin


To where it's always been, with the gods
It returns to a divine realm


Now coming, I feel the love
I sense a benevolent force approaching


It comes from on high
A celestial source


I know the words
I have acquired knowledge


But now I feel it inside
Now I truly understand it


It grows, it's there
It intensifies and is present


And all, it comes
It all derives from


From the sky
The origin is divine


From the sky
A reaffirmation that it all comes from a divine source
