Planet Earth
Nova Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

PLANET EARTH
Where's my love
It's so heavy now
I guess it's drowned in a natural law

Ebb and flow
I go back and forth
But I haven't found a way to lift off

What if human kind is a dinosaur?
If we are just animals why do we want more?

I'm looking for someone out there
Can anybody hear me now
I'm trying to find a better place
But gravity still pulls me down

Heaven is a space where
There is nothing holding me back
I don't wanna stay here
Pick me up, I long for your love

Take the weight off me
I'm looking for some more

Planet Earth
Why you so severe
Would you allow me to leave for one day?

I'll be home
Anytime you call for me
I want to know how light it could be

What if human kind is a dinosaur?
If we are just animals why do we want more?

I'm looking for someone out there
Can anybody hear me now
I'm trying to find a better place
But gravity still pulls me down

Heaven is a space where
There is nothing holding me back
I don't wanna stay here
Pick me up, I long for your love





Take the weight off me
I'm looking for some more

Overall Meaning

In "Planet Earth," Nōva is grappling with the heaviness of the world and searching for a way to escape it. The first verse begins with a confusion and longing for love, but Nōva acknowledges that the weight of the world has drowned out that love.

The chorus offers a haunting question: what if human beings are just like dinosaurs, destined for extinction? Nōva contemplates this existential question and wonders why, if humans are just animals, do we continue to want more than we have? The second verse repeats the longing for love and escape from the world's heaviness, with Nōva hoping to find a better place.


The bridge offers a glimmer of hope, imagining Heaven as a space where there is nothing holding her back. She longs to be picked up and freed from the weight of the world, hoping to find more in life. The song ends with a plea to Planet Earth, wondering why it is so severe and pleading to be allowed to leave for just one day.


Overall, "Planet Earth" is a reflective and melancholic song, with Nōva questioning the purpose and meaning of life while searching for a way to escape its heaviness.

@MarkusManuelKmeier

a lovely song Novaa!

In a time of Polarisation and friction, where everthing becomes quite heavy, and anything we knew as solid crumbles apart in the upcoming light of the new awareness, all that really stays is the truth of the heart.

Ich hoffe das war jetzt nicht zu philosophisch, bin wohl heute als Dichter erwacht.
