Gaia
The Anmer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Below her flight
She calls our name
Do you feel the change?
We're just a blue dot
Don't you understand the knot
Cold wind touches your skin
Fire burns you for your sins
Buried under stone
They tell you lies
You believe in them and now you will die
Gaia!
We made a mistake
Now is the end and we're the blamed
Gaia!
Please help us now
We're falling down
Gaia!
Life suffering under mankind
Everything will become light
Our only home
Buried under stone
You forget the acused
Hidden at night
Below her sigh
Cold wind touches your skin
Fire burns you for your sins
They spread their hate
In a world of spiteful faith
The lyrics to The Anmer's song "Gaia" seem to depict a plea to Mother Earth (Gaia) for help and forgiveness. The song begins with the notion of being hidden at night, possibly representing the ignorance or unawareness of the consequences of our actions. The line "She calls our name, do you feel the change?" suggests that Gaia is reaching out to humanity, warning of the impending crisis.
The lyrics continue to emphasize our insignificance ("We're just a blue dot"), highlighting the fragility of our planet and the need for understanding the interconnectedness of everything. The reference to a knot represents the complex web of problems and challenges faced by humanity. The contrasting imagery of the cold wind touching the skin and fire burning for sins suggests both the harsh reality and potential destructive consequences of our actions.
The chorus emphasizes the confession of our mistakes and the consequences we face as a result. The repetition of the plea "Gaia, please help us now, we're falling down" demonstrates our desperation for redemption and salvation. The lyrics further highlight the theme of mankind's negligence and indifference towards the planet, causing suffering and the potential for a destructive end.
