Planet Love
Berserkr Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where information is controlled just like a drug
Where what is right - is wrong
And logic - insane
What's bad is good for you, and pleasure - sin and pain
(Ref.:)
Here on planet love -
Here on planet love -
this melting pot's gone up in flames
Here on planet love - the dreams of racial harmony
Here on planet love - a far cry from reality
There's no such thing as "race" - we are all brothers
We're going to force you to love one another
Love your enemies and turn the other cheek
We'll change manking into a herd of human sheep
We'd like to thank you for your cooperation
For helping us with your extermination (x2)
The song "Planet Love" by Berserkr paints a dystopian picture of a place where everything is backwards, where logic is considered insanity, where pleasure is associated with sin and pain, and where what is bad is actually good for you. This planet is presented as a place where information is strictly controlled, much like a drug, which insinuates that the people here are manipulated as a result of their ignorance. This place, according to the song, is supposed to symbolize a melting pot, where people of different races, cultures and creeds come together with a dream of racial harmony, but in reality, it is a far cry from it. The chorus suggests that we pretend we are all the same, but in truth, our differences are what make us individuals.
The lyrics of the song convey a sense of coercion, where people are forced to love one another whilst being conditioned to accept their fate as part of a collective herd of human sheep. The song sarcastically proposes that we must love our enemies and turn the other cheek, even if it means our extermination. The final refrain expresses the gratitude of the powers that be for the people's cooperation, even though they are aware of the true nature of the society and their ultimate goals.
Berserkr's "Planet Love" speaks to the larger themes of conformity, manipulation, and rebellion against authority. The song provokes a thoughtful questioning of commonly accepted cultural norms, encouraging listeners to examine how they shape their values and interact with the world.
