Voyager
Inanimate Existence Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
i fear that i may now be on my own
my crew have perished and i am alone
orbiting beyond the atmosphere
my communications are down
and the power is cut
i gaze back to the earth
wondering
all that i've seen will fade
all that i am will be buried
deep beneath the sands of time
all that i have worked toward
is destined to die inside mind
will they remember the voyager
or will they forget
moments left and nothing to show
i was brought into this world cold and alone
it only makes sense that i should also
die cold and alone
but i will not die within these confines
reaching forth, i release the hatch
i float away into nothingness
gazing upon the blue planet
from a distance i can see its beauty
as ice obscures my view
i've reached the end of a journey
the end of the voyage
orbiting beyond the atmosphere
my life support has been depleted and
i soon will die all alone
i gaze back to the earth wondering
will i be remembered?
will i be remembered?
will i be forgotten?
The lyrics to Inanimate Existence's song Voyager tell the story of a lone astronaut who is stranded in outer space. The astronaut is isolated and trapped inside a capsule, and fears that they are now on their own since their crew have perished. As they orbit beyond the atmosphere, their power is cut and their communications are down. They gaze back at Earth and wonder if they will be remembered. All that they have seen and worked toward is destined to die inside their mind.
Despite the inevitable fate of being buried beneath the sands of time, the astronaut decides not to die within the confines of their capsule. They reach forth and release the hatch, floating away into nothingness while gazing at the beauty of the blue planet from a distance. The astronaut has reached the end of their journey and the end of their voyage. Their life support is depleted and they soon will die all alone, as they continue to wonder if they will be remembered or forgotten.
The lyrics to Voyager are beautifully crafted and paint a vivid picture of a lonely astronaut's final moments. The song has a haunting and melancholic feel to it, which matches perfectly with the theme of the song. The sense of isolation and finality is almost palpable, and the listener can't help but feel a sense of sadness as they listen to the lyrics.

isolated, trapped inside the capsule
Feeling alone and trapped in a tiny space
i fear that i may now be on my own
Feeling scared about being alone
my crew have perished and i am alone
All colleagues have died, and feeling lonely
orbiting beyond the atmosphere
Moving in space outside the Earth's atmosphere
my communications are down
Unable to communicate with anyone
and the power is cut
Electricity has failed
i gaze back to the earth, wondering
Looking back at Earth, thinking or feeling curious
will i be remembered?
Questioning whether anyone will remember their existence
all that i've seen will fade
Memories will eventually vanish
all that i am will be buried
Personal identity will be forgotten
deep beneath the sands of time
Far in the future
all that i have worked toward
All efforts put in will vanish
is destined to die inside mind
All dreams and plans will be forgotten
will they remember the voyager
Questioning if anyone will remember the journey
or will they forget
Or maybe it will vanish from memory
moments left and nothing to show
Time is running out with no accomplishments
i was brought into this world cold and alone
Born into life without comfort and support
it only makes sense that i should also die cold and alone
Death should follow the same conditions as birth
but i will not die within these confines
Choosing not to die in the same space they were trapped in
reaching forth, i release the hatch
Opening up to new possibilities and opportunities
i float away into nothingness
Going towards the unknown
gazing upon the blue planet
Looking back at Earth from a distance
from a distance i can see its beauty
Observing the beauty of Earth from far away
as ice obscures my view
Seeing Earth through a layer of ice
i've reached the end of a journey
The voyage is coming to a close
the end of the voyage
The end of a long trip
my life support has been depleted and
Running out of vital supplies to continue living
i soon will die all alone
Death is approaching with no one around
will i be remembered?
Asking once again if their existence will be remembered
will i be forgotten?
Wondering if their journey will be forgotten for eternity

Putting Artisian Era and "bad" in the same sentence would create a paradox that would rupture the very fabric of the universe, causing a black hole that would consume everything. And then Inanimate Existence would write an album about it.
@AidanJulius
Oh god.
@mrbuddha5263
The Artisan Era is bad for my wallet, Interesting nothing happened. shrugs
@lucasbrucas9632
But you literally did the thing you described. Idk if im beeing wooshed or if the joke just doesn't make sense and were glossing over it because it's funny. Maybe I'm the asshole here... Shit.
@flotheracer_12fr29
@Lucas Brucas nah you've been woodshed brother 😂
@RustyGonzo
I'll never not love that strangely twinkly sounding guitar tone during the more melodic parts. Makes me feel like I'm flying through the stars, or staring at the Windows 95 screensaver at the very least.
