Don’t Know What To Do
Blackpink Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

잠깐 누가 시간을 좀 멈춰봐
뭔가 크게 어긋난 걸 난 느껴
애써 어색하게 웃어보다
이젠 그런 내가 안쓰러워

아냐, 괜찮다고 말하지만
Don't know what to do without you
하찮은 이곳에 홀로 남아
그려본 니 기억은 blue

사람은 변해, 왜 나만 이래?
오늘처럼 예쁜 날에
어떻게 이렇게 모든 게 벅차기만 해?
Don't know what to do

I don't know what to do without you
Yeah, hey, hey
I don't know what to do without you
Yeah, hey, hey

I don't know what to do without
You
You
You

You know, I don't know what to do
Don't know what to do

잠깐 왔다 떠난 사람들처럼
그냥 우린 아니었던 거지 뭐

혹시라도 전화가 울릴까 봐
괜한 기댈 하는 내가 미워
자꾸 똑딱거리는 시계 소리가
유난히 거슬려

꽤나 멀쩡해 보이지만
Don't know what to do without you
이런 내 맘 거울에 들킬까 봐
그려본 내 입술은 blue

혼자가 편해, 난 그냥 그래
오늘처럼 예쁜 날에
어떻게 이렇게 모든 게 벅차기만 해?
Don't know what to do

I don't know what to do without you
Yeah, hey, hey
I don't know what to do without you
Yeah, hey, hey

I don't know what to do without
You
You
You

You know, I don't know what to do
Don't know what to do without you

아냐, 괜찮다고 말하지만
Don't know what to do without you




하찮은 이곳에 홀로 남아
그려본 니 기억은 blue

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in the song Don’t Know What To Do by BLACKPINK describe the feeling of being lost and unable to move on without someone. The song starts with the plea to stop time because something feels off and out of place. The singer of the song then admits to being awkward and uncomfortable trying to move on, feeling alone in a place that they once shared with someone special. The lyrics describe the struggle of trying to convince themselves they are okay without that person and the feeling of being betrayed by their own thoughts because deep down, they know they are not alright.


The second verse of the song describes the inner turmoil of the singer with the constant ticking of the clock, indicating the passage of time and their inability to keep track of it. The lyrics continue to describe their struggle with the present and how memories of the past keep haunting them, painting their impression with the color blue. The lyrics describe the singer's desire to be alone and to not have to deal with anyone, but at the same time feeling overwhelmed and needing that person.


Overall, the song is a representation of how losing someone can make one feel - lost and directionless, struggling to come to terms with the situation while constantly fighting with themselves. The song's emotional depth, combined with BLACKPINK's performance, makes Don’t Know What To Do an impactful hit.
