I DONT KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And drag me into place
And lock the fire escapes
I'll break your pretty face
(Yeah, yeah)
Oh, you clever little things
The sycophantic teens
What a precious basket case
(Yeah, yeah)
Now shut your dirty mouth
If I could burn this town
I wouldn't hesitate
To smile while you suffocate and die
And that would be just fine
And what a lovely time
That it would surely be
So bite your tongue
And choke yourself to sleep
(Yeah, yeah)
You get everything you want
And money always talks
To the idiot savants
(Yeah, yeah)
Now shut your dirty mouth
If I could burn this town
I wouldn't hesitate
To smile while you suffocate and die
And that would be just fine
And what a lovely time
That it would surely be
So bite your tongue
And choke yourself to sleep
Now shut your dirty mouth
If I could burn this town
I wouldn't hesitate
To smile while you suffocate and die
And that would be just fine, oh!
And what a lovely time
That it would surely be
So bite your tongue
And choke yourself
(Yeah, yeah)
The lyrics of "Choke" by I DONT KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME are eerily threatening, with a level of intensity that stands out as menacing. The lyrics point to the anger and frustration of the singer towards a group of people, who are seen as sycophantic teens with a lack of identity. The opening line, "stop, drop, and drag me into place, and lock the fire escapes," suggests that the singer is trapped and wants to break free from his captors, despite having a sense of calm, cool, and collectedness.
The lyrics also reference the theme of revenge and destruction as the singer sings, "if I could burn this town, I wouldn't hesitate to smile while you suffocate and die, and that would be just fine." The lyrics are reflective of someone who has been wronged by the group, and the image of burning down the town serves as a metaphor for wanting to start anew, rid of the pain and suffering that the group has caused.
Throughout the song, there is a noticeable theme of wanting to be free and rid of constraints. The singer references choking himself to sleep, which could be interpreted as a form of self-harm, but could also be seen as a metaphor for freeing oneself from the pressures of society.
Overall, the lyrics of "Choke" are about the struggle to break free from societal norms and the fear of being trapped, coupled with a sense of anger and revenge towards those who hold the power to keep the singer captive.
