Hypnotized
Sophie and the Giants Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feel buried alive, this city is airtight
Suffocatin', lonely in the crowds
I'm surrounded by all the screens of their lies
Screamin' into space to drown them out

I fell down so low, found nowhere to go
But I know you wait for me
You wait for me
So far out of sight, stepped into the white
But I know you wait for me

I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight
'Cause I've been hypnotized by the lights
But I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight
Yeah, it's taken time to realize
But I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight

So hold me tight, I just wanna fade out
Somewhere we can shut the world away
I'm ready to hide far from the fallouts
They won't find us in the paradise we'll make

I fell down so low, found nowhere to go
But I know you wait for me
You wait for me
So far out of sight, stepped into the white
But I know you wait for me

I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight
'Cause I've been hypnotized by the lights
But I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight
Yeah, it's taken time to realize
But I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight
I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight
I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight

Free fallin' from the high
I'm followin' the voice I know
Free fallin' from the high

I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight
'Cause I've been hypnotized by the lights
But I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight
Yeah, it's taken time to realize
But I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight




I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight
I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight

Overall Meaning

In the song Hypnotized by Sophie and the Giants, the lyrics depict the feeling of being suffocated and buried alive in a busy city. The city is described as airtight, where people are lonely in crowds and surrounded by screens of lies. The singer screams into space to drown out the noise around them. They have hit their lowest point and feel like they have nowhere to go, but they know that someone is waiting for them. The lyrics suggest that someone is there to offer comfort and support in the midst of chaos.


The chorus of the song is repeated twice, and it talks about how the singer is coming back down to reality. They have been hypnotized by the lights of the city, but it has taken them some time to realize where they truly belong. They just want to fade out somewhere and shut the world away, but they are ready to hide far from the fallout with someone who will make paradise with them. The song ends with the singer following a voice they know and coming back down to reality.


Line by Line Meaning

Feel buried alive, this city is airtight
Feeling trapped and suffocated in this city


Suffocatin', lonely in the crowds
Feeling suffocated and lonely even though surrounded by people


I'm surrounded by all the screens of their lies
Being bombarded by media that spreads false information


Screamin' into space to drown them out
Trying to shut out the noise and lies of the media by screaming into space


I fell down so low, found nowhere to go
Feeling lost and hopeless with no direction or path forward


But I know you wait for me You wait for me
Finding comfort in knowing that someone is there for you


So far out of sight, stepped into the white
Feeling distant and separated from reality


I'm comin' home, I'm comin' back down tonight 'Cause I've been hypnotized by the lights
Realizing the negative effect of being hypnotized by the glamour of city life and deciding to return home


Yeah, it's taken time to realize
Acknowledging that it has taken time to realize the truth


So hold me tight, I just wanna fade out Somewhere we can shut the world away
Craving a peaceful place to escape from the outside world


I'm ready to hide far from the fallouts They won't find us in the paradise we'll make
Wanting to escape from the consequences of the outside world and create a safe haven


Free fallin' from the high I'm followin' the voice I know
Letting go of the high city life and following your own inner voice

Feel buried alive
This city is uptight
Suffocated and lonely in the crowd

I'm surrounded by
All the screens of their life
Screaming in to space to draw them out

I felt out so low
Felt nowhere to go

But I know you wait for me
You wait for me

So far out of sight
Straight into to white
But I know you wait for me

I'm coming home
I'm coming back down tonight

'Cause I've been hypnotized by the lights
But I'm coming home
I'm coming back down tonight

Yeah, it's taken them time to realize
But I'm coming home
I'm coming back down tonight

So hold me tight
I just wanna fade out

Somewhere we can shipped the world away

I'm ready to hide
Far from the fool out
They won't find us in the paradise we'll make

I felt out so low
Felt nowhere to go
But I know you wait for me
You wait for me

So far out of sight
Straight into to white
But I know you wait for me

I'm coming home
I'm coming back down tonight

'Cause I've been hypnotized by the lights
But I'm coming home
I'm coming back down tonight

Yeah, it's taken them time to realize
But I'm coming home
I'm coming back down tonight

I'm coming home
I'm coming back down tonight
I'm coming home
I'm coming back down tonight

Free falling from the high
I'm following the voice I know
Free falling from the high
I'm coming home
I'm coming back down tonight

'Cause I've been hypnotized by the lights
But I'm coming home
I'm coming back down tonight

Yeah, it's taken them time to realize
But I'm coming home
I'm coming back down tonight

I'm coming home
I'm coming back down tonight
I'm coming home
I'm coming back down tonight
