Nitrous
Ofln - Joji Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Oh) understand, girl, I'm out of sight
To the other side, I don't want no stripes
Got my insides loud like motorcycles
Girl, don't notice it, I don't notice it
And the love make me wanna sing, sing
And my high with me wanna sing, sing
And the pain make me wanna blink, blink
But I'm in a Rover, I won't feel a thing

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

Guess I've been awake, thinking 'bout our fate
Fighting two devils, blood in my toothpaste
Spit into the night, thought it would be nice
You just make me nervous, you were cold as ice (you're cold)
I was in your town, drivin' eighty miles
Do not even notice, do not even frown
And how could I deserve this, I'm never slowin' down (never slowin' down)
Don't love me at the surface, love me like it's now (love me, love me, love me, love me)

(Oh) understand, girl, I'm out of sight
To the other side, I don't want no stripes
Got my insides loud like motorcycles
Girl, don't notice it, I don't notice it
And the love make me wanna sing, sing
And my high with me wanna sing, sing




And the pain make me wanna blink, blink
But I'm in a Rover, I won't feel a thing

Overall Meaning

In "NITROUS" by Joji, the lyrics are clearly about a relationship that is fraught with tension and confusion. The singer is struggling to keep up with the emotional ups and downs of his partner, who seems to be distant and cold at times. He sings about being on the other side, away from everything that is happening, and not wanting to be a part of the drama. He talks about the intense feelings he has, both positive and negative, and how they affect him. The love he feels makes him want to sing, but the pain he experiences makes him want to blink, as if to block out the reality of the situation. The constant emotional turmoil is making him feel numb, like he's in a Rover and won't feel anything.


The chorus repeats the idea of being out of sight and not wanting any stripes, which could mean the singer is trying to avoid any trouble or complications. He talks about the noise inside him being like motorcycles, which suggests that he's feeling a lot of adrenaline and energy, but also implies that he's trying to drown out the other noise around him. He doesn't want the girl to notice how he's feeling because he can't deal with her emotions as well as his. He wants her to love him fully and in the present, not just on the surface.


Overall, "NITROUS" is a song about the difficulties of a relationship that is inconsistent and emotionally fraught. The singer is trying to navigate his own feelings while also dealing with his partner's, and he finds himself wanting to hide away from it all. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who is trying to find his way but is feeling lost and overwhelmed.

มอเตอร์ไซค์
ฉันแค่มอเตอร์ไซค์
ได้แค่พาเธอไป
ดีแค่บางเวลา
เธอเรียกใช้เร็วไว
แต่ทิ้งไว้นมนาน
ฉันแค่มอเตอร์ไซค์
ฉันแค่มอเตอร์ไซค์

เธอมาขึ้น แล้วสักพักเธอก็ลง
จอดทิ้งไว้ ไม่สนใจไม่ใยดี
ฉันมีค่าเพียงแค่ตอนเธอต้องการ
จอดฉันไว้นานๆเถอะ จอดฉันไว้นานๆเถอะ

บึน บึน บึน บึน บึน x3

เธอมาเพราะต้องการ มาเพราะมันจำเป็น
ไม่ได้คิดถึงกัน อย่างฉันคิดถึงเธอ
เธอไม่ต้องมาจับ เธอไม่ต้องมามอง
ฉันไม่ให้เธอขึ้นหรอก ลองแล้วไม่ได้ครอง
ขี่เสร็จเธอก็จอด จอดแบบเธอไม่แคร์
ไม่เคยมาดูแล หรือนั่งเฝ้าทั้งวันเลย
ไม่ได้คิดถึงกัน มีค่าเพียงจำเป็น
ฉันไม่ให้เธอขึ้นหรอก ฉันไม่ให้เธอไป
มอเตอร์ไซค์ มอเตอร์

มอเตอร์ไซค์
ฉันแค่มอเตอร์ไซค์
ได้แค่พาเธอไป
ดีแค่บางเวลา
เธอเรียกใช้เร็วไว
แต่ทิ้งไว้นมนาน
ฉันแค่มอเตอร์ไซค์
ฉันแค่มอเตอร์ไซค์

เธอมาขึ้น แล้วสักพักเธอก็ลง
จอดทิ้งไว้ ไม่สนใจไม่ใยดี
ฉันมีค่าเพียงแค่ตอนเธอต้องการ
จอดฉันไว้นานๆเถอะ จอดฉันไว้นานๆเถอะ

LETRA

[Refrão]
Oh, entenda garota, estou fora de vista
Por outro lado, eu não quero listras
Tenho minhas entranhas barulhentas como motocicletas
Menina, não percebo, não percebo
E o amor me faz querer cantar, cantar
E o alto me faz querer cantar, cantar
E a dor me faz querer piscar, piscar
Mas estou em um Rover, não vou sentir nada

[Pós-refrão]
Ei ei ei ei
Ei ei ei ei
Ei ei ei ei

[Versículo]
Acho que estive acordado pensando em nosso destino
Lutando contra dois demônios, sangue na minha pasta de dente
Cuspiu noite adentro (Ooh), pensei que seria bom (Ooh)
Você só me deixa nervoso, você estava frio como gelo (você está frio)
Eu estava em sua cidade, dirigindo oitenta milhas
Nem perceba, nem franze a testa
E como eu poderia merecer isso? Eu nunca estou diminuindo a velocidade (nunca diminuindo a velocidade)
Não me ame na superfície, me ame como agora (me ame, me ame, me ame, me ame)

[Refrão]
Oh, entenda garota, estou fora de vista
Por outro lado, eu não quero listras
Tenho minhas entranhas barulhentas como motocicletas
Menina, não percebo, não percebo
E o amor me faz querer cantar, cantar
E o alto me faz querer cantar, cantar
E a dor me faz querer piscar, piscar
Mas estou em um Rover, não vou sentir nada

If you wonder why it sounds like the “Can’t get over you”, it’s because Clams Casino is the producer.

@user-br5gs5bg1t
