Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Grating me
And twisting me around
Yeah I'm endlessly
Caving in
And turning inside out
I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm breaking out
I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control
Yeah it's holding me
Morphing me
And forcing me to strive
To be endlessly
Caving in
And dreaming I'm alive
'Cause I want it now
I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
I'm not breaking down
I'm breaking out
Lace chance to lose control
And I want you now
I want you now
I feel my heart implode
And I'm breaking out
Escaping now
Feeling my faith erode
The lyrics to Muse's hit song "Hysteria" describe the feeling of being consumed by desire or ambition, to the point that it twists, bugs, and forces the singer to cave in and turn inside out. He desperately craves someone's heart and soul, and is willing to break out, lose control, and shake off any boundaries to get it. The song's tempo and instrumentals perfectly match the urgency and intensity of the lyrics, creating a sense of chaos and euphoria in the listener.
In the second verse, the singer describes how this desire is not only overwhelming him but also morphing and forcing him to strive for something more. He can't help but be caught up in the fantasy of it, caving in to the pressure and dreaming he's alive. He repeats the chorus, emphasizing his need for someone's heart and soul, before the song climaxes with a final burst of energy and a sense of panic as his faith begins to erode.
Overall, "Hysteria" explores the intense and often uncomfortable experience of wanting something or someone so much that it's almost painful. It's a song about desire, ambition, and the struggle to maintain control in the midst of chaos.
