white noise
Erra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am a spirit divested of human capabilities.
I am a spirit.
There are masses alike, hiding in plain sight.
Open your eyes.
You can not perceive me.
Closed off to the senses that exist in your reality. There is a ghost in all of us.
There are many that try to open their minds, deciphering the intellect of spiritual design.
Beyond our world.
White Noise.
Too many have come before you and failed, causing the constant scientific derail.
Beyond our world.
Open up your eyes.

Beyond our world lie parallels between our dimensions. Images Unseen.
What is this entity and what does it want of me?
It has a hold on my soul, I can't get free.
So many that try to open their minds, deciphering the intellect of spiritual design.

Beyond our world.
White Noise.
Open your eyes, you can't perceive me.
Closed off to the senses that exist in your reality. Beyond our world.
I will abandon myself.
What is this entity and what does it want of me?
It has a hold on my soul, I can't get free.
Am I allowing my atrophy, or can I stop this from happening?
I will abandon myself.

I will abandon myself.
Rebirth in a dimension unknown, unseen.
I will leave my body.
Still small voices are resonating.





Beyond our world lie parallels between our dimensions. Images Unseen.
Amongst the dead sound frequency, there is a pulse. Images Unseen.

Overall Meaning

The song "White Noise" by Erra stands out as a thought-provoking commentary on the existence of the spirit, and its relationship with the human body. The song starts off with the powerful statement: "I am a spirit divested of human capabilities," perhaps suggesting that the spirit is something that transcends the limitations of the human body. The singer then goes on to admit that there are many spirits like them hidden amongst us, but most people are simply unable to perceive them because they are closed off to the senses that exist in our reality.


The chorus of the song speaks of "White Noise," which may be interpreted as a metaphor for the many distractions and false beliefs that prevent us from truly understanding the spiritual world that exists beyond our physical reality. The song urges the listener to open their eyes and attempt to decipher the intellect of spiritual design, despite the failures of previous attempts to do so.


The repeated phrase "Beyond our world" in the lyrics suggests that the spirit world exists outside of our current understanding of reality, and that there may be mysterious entities that seek to influence or control us in ways that we cannot comprehend. The song ends on the solemn note: "Still small voices are resonating," perhaps suggesting that there is always a glimmer of hope for those who seek to explore the unknown.

I am a spirit divested of human capabilities
I am a spirit
There are masses alike
Hiding in plain sight
Open your eyes
You can not perceive me
Closed off to the senses that exist
In your reality
There is a ghost in all of us
There are many that try to open their minds
Deciphering the intellect of spiritual design

White noise
Too many have come before you and failed
Causing the constant scientific derail
Open up
Open your eyes

Beyond our world lie parallels between
Our dimensions images unseen

What is this entity
And what does it want of me
It has a hold on my soul
I can't get free

So many that try to open their minds
Deciphering the intellect of
Spiritual design

White noise
Open your eyes
You can't perceive me
Closed off to the senses that exist
In your reality
Beyond our world
I will abandon myself

What is this entity
And what does it want of me
It has a hold on my soul
I can't get free
Am I allowing my atrophy
Or can I stop this
From happening?

I will abandon myself
I will abandon myself

Rebirth in a dimension unknown, unseen
I will leave my body
Still small voices are resonating

Beyond our world lie
Parallels between
Our dimensions, images unseen
Amongst the dead
Sound frequency
There is a pulse
Images unseen

For not-native language I'm still feel impress by the lyrics. Beyond our world lies between parallels between. Our dimensions, images unseen. Among the dead sound frequency. There is a pulse, images unseen. Wow... fascinating!
