Hysteria
Pompeya Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Day by day
We're suffering insane
Night after night
We fight
Year by year
We're crawling through the tears
Dawn after dawn
We try
It's holding us back
It's taking me down
I'm drowning in sorrow
Ever since the time
When the reason made sense
Over and over
These are the the things
That are taking me down
Own it and stop the fight
Ends when it ends
And it always depends
Tell me your wish my friend
Walk down the block
To a cleaner side
This is where we do or we die
In two of the roads that we driven before
It's taking me over theLine

Hysteria
Hysteria

Day by day
We suffer and we prey
Night after night
We cry
Year by year
We're crawling through the fears
Dawn after dawn
We try It's holding us back
It's taking me dawn
I'm drowning in sorrow
Ever since the time
When the reason made sense
Over and over
Please stop the things
That are taking me down
Own'em and stop the fight
Ends when it ends
And it always depends
So many things we hide
Walk down the block
To a cleaner side
This is where we do or we die




With all of the chances we've had so far
You're making me overload

The repetition of "day by day" and "night after night" highlights the monotony of existence and the constant battle with one's inner demons. The lyrics also touch on the theme of time and the sense that it is slipping away from us, leaving us feeling like we're drowning in sorrow. At the same time, there is a glimmer of hope in the idea that we can take control of our own lives and stop fighting against ourselves.


The chorus of "Hysteria" serves as a refrain throughout the song and is a call to action for the listener. The word "hysteria" can be interpreted as a state of intense emotional turmoil or a loss of control, and the repetition of the word emphasizes the urgency of the situation. The bridge of the song encourages the listener to walk down the block to a cleaner side, where they can take control of their lives and make a change for the better.


Overall, "Hysteria" is a powerful and introspective song that delves into the complexities of the human experience. It encourages the listener to take responsibility for their own happiness and to stop fighting against themselves, echoing the sentiment expressed in the famous quote by philosopher Marcus Aurelius: "The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts."
