Don
Emmi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Life´s so god damn complicated
But still so wonderful
All of those things you thought you hated
Turned out to be so beautiful
Drown me as deep as you want to
Baby I think I´d still be burning
I´m asking for one but I´m thinking of two
Don´t introduce me as you think you know
´Cos I don´t even think I know myself
Don´t even think I know myself just yet
Another tired mind gives in to solitude
Days fall in to waste
Keep forgetting what is old or new
In between there´s a bitter taste
I lock on the target where I want to go
Talk about your complications now
Everything is fine but I scream to show
So it is you think you know
But I don´t even think i know myself
Don´t even think i know myself just yet
Don´t say you know me
Don´t think you own me
This is my life, see
I don´t want to know who I´m supposed to please
Don´t say you know me
Don´t think you own me
This is my life see




It´s all on me
Chorus

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Emmi's song Don't Know Myself reflect the confusion and uncertainty that comes with trying to understand one's own identity. The opening lines express this duality, acknowledging both the complexity and beauty of life. The following lines explore the idea that things we may have rejected in the past can ultimately be seen as beautiful. The singer then addresses someone who may feel they know her well in the chorus, saying that she doesn't even know herself yet. She rejects the notion that anyone else can fully understand her, insisting that her life is hers to own and that she refuses to be defined by anyone else's expectations.


The second verse delves deeper into the singer's sense of isolation and alienation, expressing a feeling of detachment from both the past and present. Time seems to blend together into a "bitter taste," and the singer struggles to orient themselves in the world. However, she also asserts her agency in this state of confusion, saying that she knows where she wants to go and will keep pushing forward despite any doubts or obstacles.


Overall, "Don't Know Myself" is a powerful statement of self-discovery and self-assertion. Emmi captures the frustration and uncertainty that comes with trying to define oneself in a world that often tries to do it for us. The song suggests that while understanding ourselves may be an ongoing process, it's one that we're fully capable of doing on our own terms.
