Nowhere I Want
Dimmer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got scared by ghosts in the corner
Yeah i'm sure they have their stories
But they can stop before they start
What i don't know can't concern me
Safe in a state of suspension
And i know where i wanna be told and i know where i don't x2
And i might have heard a rumour
But i didn't let it get too far
I've been turning down information
Facts that are best left a mystery
Cos i know where i wanna be told and i know where i don't
I know where i wanna be told and i know where i don't
In Dimmer's song Nowhere I Want, the lyrics express a sense of fear and avoidance towards learning about history and the past. The singer expresses a desire to remain in a state of suspension, where they are neither aware nor concerned about the ghosts, stories or rumors they may come across. They suggest that not knowing is a safer option, and that some facts are best left a mystery.
The repeated line "I know where I wanna be told and I know where I don't" indicates a clear understanding of one's limits and boundaries when it comes to learning about the past. It suggests that while some information may be necessary and wanted, there are certain topics or details that the singer does not wish to know or be told about.
The song is a reflection on the human tendency to selectively choose what to know and what to ignore. It acknowledges that our fear and aversion to certain aspects of history can be limiting, but also recognizes that it is ultimately up to us to decide what we want to learn and what we would rather avoid.

In many cases, this results in sudden immediate blindness in one eye. This guy is lucky. If it happens, the patient must get treatment ASAP. A recent report says that the patient may have no more than 15 minutes in which to be treated.
@nmeza85
You can go completely blind within 24hrs if treatment is not sought out

This happened to me 6 days ago. I'm 29. I went to sleep last Tuesday. I didn't have any problem at all. I don't have nothing wrong with me, but when I woke up the next day at 4am I was completely blind from my left eye. At first I thought it was normal because the lights were off, but when I went to the bathroom to shower I still couldn't see anything so I started worry about my eye. I put some drops in my eye and nothing happened. Everything was black and I didn't have any pain or discomfort. Nothing. It was just black. I showered thinking that it could help, but no. So I went to the hospital and they couldn't find anything. I stayed the whole day and night at the hospital. I had many studies, however they couldn't find any problem with me. at the end of the next day they said that I had a dot of blood in the main artery of my eye. They just gave me sperine, and now I could see a little more from my left eye. Still blurry but it's not black as the first day. Now, 6 days later I can see around the eye. But still gray in the center of the eye. I hope I can see better in the next few days. Every night I go to sleep and pray for me and my vision. It's really important to go to see your doctor. They're going to do as much as they can to get you back your vision.

I had a total CRAO 3 years ago. The spot you are talking about is called the "cherry red spot" and is the tell-tale symptom of a CRAO..
@happyjoy3210
Hello sir , please I beg you to help me . If I roll both my eyes simultaneously my vision goes black and if I jump or move fastly during sports I see veins like lightning bolts in my vision and if I press my eyeball anywhere for 2–3 seconds my vision goes completely black.After I see a bright object its outline still persists in my vision. I've visited docs but she is unable to tell me what is this. Please please I'm very much worried and depressed for years please someone help me find wtf this is .
