Hurricane
Galantis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I used to think we were different
But we're just the same
Both so broken and conceited
We will never change
You saw through me when you looked
Into my shattered soul
Pin me down and told me that
I was vulnerable

And when I turned my back
You saw and opened up
And when I gave you breath
You turned it into storm

(Woo hoo) You know you hit me like a hurricane
Since you hit me I won't love again
A force of nature that can't be tamed
You know you hit me like a hurricane

(Woo hoo)

(Woo hoo) You know you hit me like a hurricane
Since you hit me I won't love again

I keep on searching through the wreckage
All I find is pain
Only thoughts of you and I
Are what still remain

Yeah, I'll take the blame
But I know that you were wrong
'Cause if I give you breath
You turn it into storm

(Woo hoo) You know you hit me like a hurricane
Since you hit me I won't love again
(Woo hoo) A force of nature that can't be tamed
You know you hit me like a hurricane

Oh, I fear to break away from your heart
'Cause every time I tried
You hit me so hard

You know you hit me like a hurricane
(Woo hoo, hey)





(Woo hoo) You know you hit me like a hurricane
Since you hit me I won't love again

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Galantis & John Newman's song Hurricane paint a picture of a tumultuous and damaging relationship. The singer initially believes that they and their partner are different from others, but soon realizes that they are both broken and that their relationship is filled with conceit. Despite this, the singer is vulnerable and the partner recognizes this, putting the singer in a precarious position. The line "You turned it into storm" suggests that the partner takes the singer's vulnerabilities and exploits them for their own gain.


The chorus of the song is a repeated refrain that says "You know you hit me like a hurricane, since you hit me I won't love again." This could imply that the partner's impact on the singer has been so devastating that they will never be able to love again. The lyrics "I fear to break away from your heart, 'cause every time I tried, you hit me so hard" indicate that the singer knows that they need to end the relationship, but is unable to because their partner has such a hold on them. The song ends with the line "Since you hit me I won't love again" repeated again, solidifying the idea that the relationship has been too destructive for the singer to recover.


Overall, the lyrics to Hurricane convey a powerful message about the destructive nature of some relationships. They highlight the ways in which people can exploit others' vulnerabilities and the long-lasting effects that those actions can have. The repeated refrain of "You know you hit me like a hurricane" drives home the idea that some relationships can be truly devastating and can leave an indelible mark on a person's life.


Line by Line Meaning

I used to think we were different
At one point, I believed that we were unique from one another


But we're just the same
However, I now see that we are actually identical


Both so broken and conceited
We are both deeply flawed and arrogant


We will never change
Regrettably, it is unlikely that either of us will improve


You saw through me when you looked Into my shattered soul
You accurately perceived the damage inside me


Pin me down and told me that I was vulnerable
You held me in place and made me recognize my susceptibility


And when I turned my back You saw and opened up
When I looked away, you became more transparent


And when I gave you breath You turned it into storm
But when I attempted to provide you with comfort, you twisted it into turmoil


(Woo hoo) You know you hit me like a hurricane Since you hit me I won't love again
You struck me with such intensity that I am unable to love anyone else


A force of nature that can't be tamed
Your effect on me is uncontrollable and unpredictable


I keep on searching through the wreckage All I find is pain
Despite my efforts to uncover something positive, all I encounter is suffering


Only thoughts of you and I Are what still remain
The only thing that continues to exist is my memories of you and us


Yeah, I'll take the blame But I know that you were wrong
I accept responsibility for my errors, but I recognize that you were also at fault


Oh, I fear to break away from your heart 'Cause every time I tried You hit me so hard
I am afraid to sever myself from you due to the severe pain I experience each time I attempt to do so


(Woo hoo, hey) You know you hit me like a hurricane Since you hit me I won't love again
You struck me with such force that I am unable to love anyone else
