Hai presente in aeroporto
You know at the airport
Le sale fumatori?
The smoking rooms?
Sono camere a gas in cui facciamo tutto da soli
They're gas chambers where we do everything ourselves
Io nella mia bolla
Me in my bubble
Ho solo adulatori
I've only got flatterers
Per dimenticarmi che c'è un mondo fuori
To forget there's a world outside
Di hikikomori
Of hikikomori
Leggessi le statistiche sapresti che si muore
If you read the statistics you'd know people die
Quasi sempre dentro le mura domestiche
Almost always inside domestic walls
Mi stupirei dicessi che hai paura di uscire
I'd be surprised if you said you're scared to go out
Ho più paura quando vanno a dormire (vanno a dormire)
I'm more scared when they go to sleep (they go to sleep)
Leggessi le statistiche sapresti che si muore
If you read the statistics you'd know people die
Quasi sempre dentro le mura domestiche
Almost always inside domestic walls
Mi stupirei dicessi che hai paura di uscire
I'd be surprised if you said you're scared to go out
Ho più paura quando vanno a dormire (vanno a dormire)
I'm more scared when they go to sleep (they go to sleep)
Fatti un mondo su misura, tutto per te
Make yourself a custom world, all for you
Da cui poi non esci più
From which you never leave again
Ciò che è fuori fa paura, tutto per te
What's outside is scary, all for you
Anche se poi fai finta di niente
Even if you then pretend nothing happened
Finta di niente
Pretend nothing happened
Finta di niente
Pretend nothing happened
Tutto intorno a te, tipo banca Mediolanum
Everything around you, like Mediolanum Bank
Il tuo mondo in mano
Your world in your hand
Ci hanno convinto che tutti possiamo
They've convinced us we all can
Che siamo padroni, che tutti scegliamo
That we're masters, that we all choose
Siamo nel centro del mondo che abbiamo
We're in the center of the world we've got
Ed è fatto a immagine e somiglianza
And it's made in its image and likeness
Questo aumenta la nostra arroganza
This increases our arrogance
C'è un muro al confine, 'sto mondo è una stanza
There's a wall at the border, this world's a room
Il cielo è uno schermo
The sky's a screen
Sono un uomo del mio tempo moderno
I'm a man of my modern time
Non mi fido dei giornali e governo
I don't trust newspapers and the government
Chissà cosa c'è dietro, chissà cosa mettono dentro
Who knows what's behind it, who knows what they put in
Meglio limitare ogni interazione
Better to limit every interaction
Solo con chi ha già la mia stessa opinione
Only with those who already share my opinion
E accetto ogni informazione
And I accept any information
Solo se mi darà ragione, perché ho ragione
Only if it proves me right, because I'm right
Fatti un mondo su misura, tutto per te
Make yourself a custom world, all for you
Da cui poi non esci più
From which you never leave again
Ciò che è fuori fa paura, tutto per te
What's outside is scary, all for you
Anche se poi fai finta di niente
Even if you then pretend nothing happened
Finta di niente
Pretend nothing happened
Finta di niente
Pretend nothing happened

hikikomori — social recluse
Hikikomori is a Japanese term that refers to individuals who withdraw from society and remain isolated in their homes for extended periods. It's a fascinating and increasingly relevant word in modern society.
Willie Peyote uses this term to describe a state of extreme social withdrawal, comparing it to being in a self-made bubble. The song explores themes of isolation, fear of the outside world, and the echo chambers created by social media, making hikikomori a central and thought-provoking concept.
