The Nibiru
Fireal Lyrics

The lyrics of Fireal's "The Nibiru" evoke a sense of apocalypse and impending doom. The first stanza describes the rain pouring down on Earth, and the shades crawling on this world, which represents an eerie and dark atmosphere. The second stanza speaks of the warning signs of a rising tide and how they are overlooked and unread. The following line, "But I can't force myself to care or to be spared," hints at the singer's indifference to the fate of humanity, and perhaps his or her own. The chorus warns that the end is almost here, with one minute to go before the singer is gone, and the rest of humanity will forget their life. The singer questions whether they can reconcile with their lover, but admits that they would be lying if they said they could.

The song suggests that humanity is the enemy of the world and the apocalypse is a result of our own actions. The lyrics capture the feeling of nihilism and despair, as if everything is beyond our control. The Nibiru, mentioned in the title, is actually the name given to a hypothetical planet that astronomers proposed could collide with Earth or cause cataclysmic events. The song may be a reflection of the anxieties of the early 2000s when rumors about the Nibiru planet were widespread. The end of the world may also symbolize the end of a relationship, as the singer asks if they can reconcile even though they know it's a lie.

Overall, the lyrics of "The Nibiru" are open to interpretation and invoke a sense of sadness, resignation and a lack of control over events. The reference to the Nibiru may also suggest that the cause of the apocalypse is outside of humanity's control.
