Not Alone
Scanner Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There'll be times
When we'll conquer the sky
We'll fly to every star
As ambassadors

We'll be a few
Out of a million minds
For the first encounters

We are not alone
They watch us and hear our voices
We are not alone
We have no choice

We can reach
Out for eternity
Where other creatures live
Somewhere in the endless space

We believe
In our holy right




To be the only one
Unique God's creation

Overall Meaning

In Scanner's song "Not Alone," the lyrics depict a sense of unity and connectedness between humans and other life forms in the universe. The first verse paints a picture of humans conquering the skies and venturing to the stars as ambassadors, suggesting a peaceful and exploratory approach to interacting with extraterrestrial beings. The following verse emphasizes the rarity of this occurrence, with the group of humans representing just a few out of a million minds.


The chorus of the song repeatedly asserts "we are not alone" and highlights the idea that beings from other worlds may be watching and listening to us. The line "we have no choice" suggests that their presence is unavoidable, though the tone remains optimistic and curious. The final verse portrays a belief in humanity's special status as "unique God's creation," but also acknowledges the possibility of other creatures living elsewhere in the vast spaces of the universe.


Overall, the song urges for unity and open-mindedness in the face of the unknown, and encourages a sense of awe and wonder towards the vastness of the cosmos and the possibility of life beyond Earth.
