In Within Temptation's evocative track, "Supernova," the theme of enduring emotional turmoil after a profound loss is vividly explored. The repeated invocation of a "supernova" symbolizes an explosive, transformative event—akin to the dramatic end of a star—which parallels the intense impact someone's departure has on the protagonist. Through celestial imagery and references to cosmic events, the lyrics convey both the beauty and devastation wrought by such a loss. The song navigates through feelings of longing and desperation, as expressed in lines about waiting for closure or a final goodbye that never comes. Ultimately, "Supernova" captures the paradoxical nature of grief: it is both deeply personal and universally immense, much like the astronomical phenomena it references.

Lyrics
I'm waiting for you, supernova
I'm waiting for you, supernova
Supernova
Supernova
I'm waiting for you, supernova
Supernova
Supernova
Drowning in a haze, and I just want to get in deeper
Purple skies with a million stars, I'm falling ground
These days when I'm losing track of time
These days when I'm burning up inside
These days when I'm lost to search the skies
I'm waiting for your last goodbye
'Cause I'm not over it, not over it
I'm waiting for your last goodbye
The kiss of time
Like thunder screaming out for a flash of lightning
Stars are falling down for God's applause
I'm waiting for the light of your supernova
Your last goodbye
I'm waiting for you, supernova
Supernova
Supernova
I'm waiting for you
When the lights go down
I'm still here, and I'm singing for you
When the lights go down
I can't let the music fade
I dive in deep and soar so high
I blow the ashes to free the sky
On a hill, I'm here to say goodbye
I'm waiting for your last goodbye
'Cause I'm not over it, not over it
I'm waiting for your last goodbye
The kiss of time
Like thunder screaming out for a flash of lightning
Stars are falling down for God's applause
I'm waiting for the light of your supernova
Your last goodbye
I'm waiting for you
As long as I dream, it ain't over, over
I'll bring the chains of gravity
Oh, I long for your fire, yeah, I long for your fire
My heart is lost between the stars
Drowning in a haze, and I just want to get in deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper
I'm waiting for your last goodbye
'Cause I'm not over it, not over it
I'm waiting for your last goodbye
The kiss of time
Like thunder screaming out for a flash of lightning
Stars are falling down for God's applause
I'm waiting for the light of your supernova
Your last goodbye
I'm waiting for you, supernova
I'm waiting for you, supernova
Supernova
Supernova
I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for you, supernova
Supernova
Supernova
Drowning in a haze, and I just want to get in deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper
