Enter Shikari - Bloodshot

Copied!

{Intro: Rou Reynolds}
(You're going under)
Hypnotised, I'm so hypnotised, I'm so hypnotised, I'm so
Manipulate and hypnotise
Hypnotised, I'm so hypnotised, I'm so hypnotised, I'm so
(Three, two, one, sync)
Hypnotised, I'm so hypnotised, I'm so hypnotised, I'm so
Manipulate and hypnotised
Hypnotised, I'm so hypnotised, I'm so hypnotised, I'm so
(Three, two, one) Hypnotised

{Verse 1: Rou Reynolds}
They say follow your heart, which is bad advice
When it's been broken in two, now it's compromised
I've lost sight of what is real and now you're going under

{Chorus: Rou Reynolds}
My eyes are bloodshot (They're bloodshot)
And I've seen it all before
But this film, it won't stop (It won't stop)
And through your lens the world is an eyesore

{Post-Chorus: Rou Reynolds}
Hypnotised, I'm so hypnotised, I'm so hypnotised, I'm so
Manipulate, I'm hypnotised
Hypnotised, I'm so hypnotised, I'm so hypnotised, I'm so
(Three, two, one) Hypnotised

{Verse 2: Rou Reynolds}
Oh God, I can't remove all these filters
They're in my field of vision
Now it's compromised
I've lost sight of what is real
Oh, it's right there
Before your eyes
For all to see, the greatest of lies
Have you noticed I'm a hypnotist?
Have you noticed that you're going under?

{Chorus: Rou Reynolds & Chris Batten}
My eyes are bloodshot (Bloodshot)
And I've seen it all before
But this film, it won't stop (Won't stop)
And through your lens the world is an eyesore
I can hear the echoes, gliding over burnt holes
I can see the future, I can hear you calling out
My eyes are bloodshot (Bloodshot)
And through your lens the world is an eyesore

{Bridge: Rou Reynolds}
My eyes are bloodshot, bloodshot
I don't want to lose everything we got
This film it won't stop, it won't stop
(Three, two, one) Hypnotise

{Chorus: Rou Reynolds}
My eyes are bloodshot (Bloodshot)
And I've seen it all before
This film, it won't stop (Won't stop)
And through your lens the world is an eyesore

{Outro: Rou Reynolds}
My eyes are bloodshot (Bloodshot)
And I've seen it all before
This film, it won't stop (Won't stop)
And through your lens the world is an eyesore

The lyrics speak of feeling lost and compromised, unable to see what is real amidst a sea of filters and lies. The chorus emphasizes the feeling of being overwhelmed and exhausted, with bloodshot eyes that have seen it all before. The song captures a sense of frustration and disillusionment with the world, portrayed as an eyesore through someone else's lens. The hypnotic and hypnotizing nature of the song's composition adds to its impactful and thought-provoking message.
