Planet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're still yawning, calling me to bed
With the feelings you can't hide
Leaving no time left for me to vent
And I can't pull the reins in my head
They're twisting all the same
Your voice is clear
I need a friend
Why do you turn up and turn me off again?
Now you tell me I don't know
Although I heard all your heartaches before
Information overload
I can't think when I'm with you at all
I can't pull the reins in my head
They're twisting all the same
Your voice is clear
I need a friend
Why do you turn up and turn me off again?
It's nothing you said
I'm an open book that you have never read
I need a friend
Why do you turn up and turn me off again?
It's nothing you said
I'm an open book that you have never read
Give me an end
You won't let me finish time and time and then
I won't be the same
You won't let me in
Yeah, I won't be the same
You won't let me in
The song "Information Overload" by Planet is a powerful expression of frustration in a relationship. The opening lines describe the feeling of being exhausted and ignored while trying to connect with a partner who is emotionally unavailable. The singer is using imagery of a past life to suggest that they are not presently connected to their partner. The person is still yawning, suggesting that they are not fully awake and present in the relationship. However, the singer is still reaching out, trying to connect and expressing their feelings that are being hidden away.
The second verse describes the emotional confusion that the singer is experiencing due to this unresponsive partner. The person seems not to listen, as their thoughts are twisting around in their own head. Despite this, their partner's voice is still ringing clear in their ears, symbolizing a sense of emotional manipulation. The singer feels as though they are losing their mind under the weight of too much information and stress from their partner. They feel they need a friend, someone to help them deal with the emotional overload they are facing in the relationship.
The chorus is a plea for help and understanding. The singer is trying to express their frustration at being overlooked and ignored by their partner, but the partner seems to think that the singer's emotions are not valid. The singer is overwhelmed and unable to think clearly when they are with their partner. The repetition of the need for a friend highlights the loneliness of the singer and their desire for someone to understand and support them.
