🎤 Lyrics & Meaning
“Purple haze all in my brain / Lately things just don’t seem the same…”
Themes:
Often interpreted as a psychedelic experience or “trip”
Lyrics suggest a confused mental state: possibly romantic, possibly drug-induced
Hendrix once claimed it was inspired by a dream and by a sci-fi novel (Night of Light by Philip José Farmer), not necessarily LSD—though the imagery fits 1960s counterculture
