No One Knows
Dexter Freebish Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's been one of those days when the sky falls down
And the world around me comes crumbling down
I'm picking up the pieces of the life that she left behind
I've got a million of her lies swimming in my head
And a million reasons why I wish we never met
Cause everyone believed our love was true
And didn't see the pain that I went through
No one knows
She crushed my heart; she broke it with a hammer
No one knows
All the things I've done to try to understand her
No one knows
I've died a thousand deaths ever since she left me there
Yeah she left me there
'Cause she didn't care

I've been stuck here in my room going crazy by myself
And I'm setting fire to your pictures on the shelf
I know I should have thrown them all out a long time ago
Well I've never been a man that lives with regret
I forget to live and I live to forget
How everyone believed our love was true
And didn't see the pain that I went through

No one knows
She crushed my heart; she broke it with a hammer
No one knows
All the things I've done to try to understand her
No one knows
I've died a thousand deaths ever since she left me there

Everybody thought that we were doing fine
But deep inside we were doing time
And in the end she ran off with my soul
Sometimes it's hard to say good-bye
I gave her everything; she took my pride
And now I don't know where I'm gonna go

No one knows
Crush my heart; she broke it with a hammer
No one knows
All the things I've done to try to understand her




No one knows
I've died a thousand deaths ever since she left me there

Overall Meaning

The song "No One Knows" by Dexter Freebish is an emotional ballad about heartbreak, betrayal, and the struggle to move on from a toxic relationship. The opening lines of the song set the tone for the rest of the lyrics, "It's been one of those days when the sky falls down/And the world around me comes crumbling down." This imagery paints a picture of the singer feeling powerless and alone.


The lyrics go on to describe the aftermath of a failed relationship, with the singer "picking up the pieces" of their life after their partner leaves. They are haunted by memories of the past and wish they had never met their ex-lover. The chorus repeats the phrase "No one knows" multiple times, emphasizing the singer's isolation and inability to fully express the pain they are feeling.


The bridge of the song adds another layer of complexity to the story, as it reveals that on the surface, their relationship appeared to be going well. However, behind closed doors, they were both suffering. The ex-partner betrayed the singer and took their self-worth, leaving them feeling lost and unsure of their future.


Overall, "No One Knows" is a powerful song about the agony of heartbreak and the struggle to move on. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person grappling with the aftermath of a failed relationship and the scars it leaves behind.


Line by Line Meaning

It's been one of those days when the sky falls down
Everything has gone wrong today


And the world around me comes crumbling down
I feel like my life is falling apart


I'm picking up the pieces of the life that she left behind
I'm trying to deal with the aftermath of our breakup


I've got a million of her lies swimming in my head
I can't stop thinking about all the lies she told me


And a million reasons why I wish we never met
I regret ever getting involved with her


Cause everyone believed our love was true
We seemed like the perfect couple to everyone else


And didn't see the pain that I went through
No one else understands how much she hurt me


No one knows
I'm keeping my pain to myself


She crushed my heart; she broke it with a hammer
She destroyed me emotionally


All the things I've done to try to understand her
I've tried to make sense of her actions


I've died a thousand deaths ever since she left me there
I've been in unbearable pain since she left


'Cause she didn't care
She didn't care about how her actions affected me


I've been stuck here in my room going crazy by myself
I've been isolating myself and struggling to cope


And I'm setting fire to your pictures on the shelf
I'm trying to let go of my attachment to her


I know I should have thrown them all out a long time ago
I've been holding onto these things for too long


Well I've never been a man that lives with regret
I don't usually dwell on the past


I forget to live and I live to forget
I'm struggling to move on


Everybody thought that we were doing fine
No one realized how much we were struggling


But deep inside we were doing time
Our relationship was a prison for both of us


And in the end she ran off with my soul
She took everything from me, emotionally and spiritually


Sometimes it's hard to say good-bye
It's difficult to let go of someone you used to love


I gave her everything; she took my pride
She took everything from me and left me feeling empty


And now I don't know where I'm gonna go
I'm lost without her
