The song "Human Space Volt" by Zoé tells the story of a person who feels trapped and disconnected from the world around them. The lyrics convey a sense of longing for freedom and a desire to break free from the constraints of society. The mention of "riding a paper plane" and being a "junkie, an alpha monkey" suggests a yearning for a different, more exhilarating way of life. The reference to the television being a drug and people giving their eyes to the Reich (possibly referring to a controlling authority) paints a picture of a society that is consumed by technology and mindless conformity. The chorus, with its repeated plea for "holy water" and "microwaves for redemption", seems to express a search for spiritual cleansing and salvation from the emptiness and disconnection that the protagonist feels. Overall, the song seems to be about the struggle to find meaning and connection in a world that feels suffocating and alienating. The use of electronic and quantum imagery adds a futuristic and otherworldly dimension to the theme of seeking liberation and redemption.
