Purgatory
Soph Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But it's in sight
I just feel so uneasy
Why do you feel like it's okay to always tease me
I can't keep quiet anymore
Give me a reason that I shouldn't walk out the door
Just turn my thoughts into reality
Please wake me up if this is not a dream
Because I'd rather sleep if this is fantasy
Just turn my thoughts into reality
At night I want you lying next to me
Please wake me up if this is not a dream
Because I'd rather sleep if this is fantasy
Waiting on ya
Sick of waiting on ya waiting
I'll be waiting for you
Sick of waiting on ya waiting on ya
Thinkin of ya
Sick of thinking of ya thinking
I'll be thinkin bout you
Sick of thinkin of ya thinkin of ya
Just turn my thoughts into reality
At night I want you lying next to me
Please wake me up if this is not a dream
Because I'd rather sleep if this is fantasy
Just turn my thoughts into reality
At night I want you lying next to me
Please wake me up if this is not a dream
Because I'd rather sleep if this is fantasy
The lyrics in Soph's song "Purgatory" describe a sense of uneasiness and frustration in a relationship that is not fulfilling. The singer is questioning why their partner thinks it's okay to always tease them and is longing for something that feels more real. They want their thoughts to become a reality and for their partner to be with them at night, but they also express a fear of it all being a fantasy or a dream.
The repeated phrases of "waiting on ya" and "thinkin' of ya" suggest that the singer has been waiting and thinking about their partner for a long time, but they are growing tired of it. The chorus conveys a sense of desperation, as the singer wants their desires to become a reality so badly that they would rather be woken up from a dream than continue living in uncertainty.
Overall, "Purgatory" is a song about the struggle of waiting for something that may never come, and the pain of being in a relationship that feels shallow and unfulfilling. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and desperation, as the singer tries to get their partner to see the seriousness of their feelings.
