NOVAS
Kunzite Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
"They... they know far more less than they do what they know"
"I mean that they... there's so much that they don't know"
"Until what they do know is not even important"
"So it comes down to that point, well, they don't really know anything"
"Uh, it's the same thing as it ever was"
"Nothing has changed yet"
"So, my music is about... changing things"
Distant flame
Distant flame nova
Distant flame
Distant flame nova
Distant flame
Distant flame nova
Distant flame
Distant flame nova
Ocean
Mix is so perfect
Mix our sol system
Oh nova
It's your reflection
Kissing the white sky
Kiss the sun
Mist upon the tongue
Distant nova waves
Kiss the sun
Mist upon the tongue
Distant nova waves
Ocean
Mix is so perfect
Mix our sol system
Oh nova
It's your reflection
Kissing the white sky
The lyrics of Kunzite's song NOVAS seem to be a commentary on the limitation of human knowledge and the way in which we construct our understanding of the world around us. Starting with the observation that "they know far more less than they do what they know," the lyrics go on to suggest that there is so much that people don't know that what they do know is insignificant. The singer notes that "nothing has changed yet," implying that despite the accumulation of knowledge over the centuries, the fundamental limitations of human understanding remain intact.
However, the song does not end on a note of despair or resignation. The singer declares that "my music is about... changing things," suggesting that even if our understanding of the world is limited, music has the power to transform us and create new ways of thinking about ourselves and our place in the world. In this way, the song seems to embrace the idea that while human knowledge may always be limited, the transformative power of art can help us bridge the gap between what we know and what we do not.
