UTOPIA
Innosense Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Distant lights
Were never so alive
That’s why I’m tripping down tonight
A promised land
Utopia my friend
Far away
Need so hard to say
Your desire exposed
Behind those eyes
A demand
A voice you can’t deny
Far away
You need to say

Call me now
Take me now
Across my way back home
Bless me now
Or burn me now
Revive my soul

Feel you now




Need you now
Take me back home

Overall Meaning

The song "Utopia" by Innosense implies the desire for an ideal world which is far away and hard to reach. The opening line "Distant lights were never so alive" starts with expressing that something seems unusually bright, indicating the desire for this Utopian world. The next line, "That’s why I’m tripping down tonight," could be interpreted as the singer being overwhelmed by the desire for Utopia, making him/her feel like they are stumbling or "tripping" in the present world.


The song goes on to describe this Utopian land as a promised land, which means it is not only something that is desired but also something that is promised to be delivered. However, the destination is far away, making it challenging to reach this ideal place. The lyric "Your desire exposed behind those eyes, a demand, a voice you can’t deny", implies that the singer recognizes that the desire for Utopia is not only his/her own, but it's also a universal desire. The song ends with the singer calling out to be taken back home, indicating a longing to be in that Utopian world as soon as possible.
