Meaning of NITROUS lyrics by Joji

June 19, 2023

The song "NITROUS" by Joji appears to describe a relationship that is causing the singer a lot of anxiety and stress. The chorus talks about the singer's desire to escape from his troubles and forget about the pain he's feeling. He says that the love he feels for his partner makes him want to sing, but the high he gets from an unknown source also makes him want to sing.

The post-chorus repeats the phrase "Hey, hey, hey, hey," which could represent a mantra or a chant that helps the singer to cope with his feelings. It could also represent the sound of a motor engine, tying into the metaphor of his insides being loud like motorcycles.

In the verse, he mentions that he's been awake thinking about his fate, and is struggling with two inner demons. He has blood in his toothpaste, meaning that he's been grinding his teeth in his sleep, which can be a sign of stress and anxiety. He also mentions that he's nervous around his partner, who is cold towards him.

He then talks about driving to her town, but she doesn't notice or care. He feels like he doesn't deserve this treatment and is tired of constantly feeling like he can't keep up. He wants her to love him for who he is, not just at a surface level.

Overall, "NITROUS" seems to reflect a tumultuous relationship that is causing the singer a lot of pain and stress. He wants to forget about it and escape to a place where he doesn't have to feel anything.
