Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Aha)
Blackout...
(Yeah)
Jeg tenker, okey, jeg sovna med klæra på
Midt uti det blå
Etter 20åra burd'n kanskje ha lært nå?
Men det ekke alltid like lett å tenke smart
Jeg kjenner etter å forstår at jeg er lenka fast
Sandpapir i monn, hvor er telefon?
Ingenting kan motbevise at jeg var grusom. Igår!
Å klokka er ti på 12,, jeg kan for faen ike huske sist jeg var i så ræva form.

The lines "Blackout, Jeg tenker, okey, jeg sovna med klæra på / Midt uti det blå" indicate that the singer has woken up after a blackout and is confused about how he ended up in the situation he is currently in. The lyrics convey the feeling of shame and self-realization that comes with the realization that one's actions while drunk have negative consequences.
The lyrics "Etter 20åra burd'n kanskje ha lært nå? / Men det ekke alltid like lett å tenke smart / Jeg kjenner etter å forstår at jeg er lenka fast" reflect on how the singer's experiences with alcohol have not taught him to make better decisions, even though he is older.

Overall, "Blackout" is a relatable and honest portrayal of the negative effects of excessive drinking on oneself, and those around them. It shows the consequences that come with not learning from one's mistakes and the need for self-reflection and growth to break the cycle of destructive behavior.

In the middle of nowhere
Etter 20åra burd'n kanskje ha lært nå?
After my twenties, shouldn't I have learned by now?

I realize and understand that I'm stuck

Sandpaper everywhere, where's my phone?
Ingenting kan motbevise at jeg var grusom. Igår!
Nothing can prove that I wasn't terrible yesterday!

And it's ten past noon, I can't for the life of me remember the last time I was in such a crappy state.
