I Don't Know
Eruption Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I never listen to a word that you say
I don't believe anything you say anyway
I don't know if it's 'cause I've been drinkin'
But your behavior has got me thinkin'

You don't remember anything that you say
Spendin' all your time just smokin' the day away
I don't think you could get much higher
Your pants are stuck on a telephone wire

I can't believe a single thing that you say
It doesn't make any difference anyway
I don't know why you keep trying
'Cause I already know that you're lying

I wouldn't listen to a thing that I say
I don't remember anything I say anyway
I don't know if it's 'cause I've been drinkin'
But your behavior has got me thinkin'

I can't believe a single thing that you say
It doesn't make any difference anyway




I don't know why you keep trying
'Cause I already know that you're lying

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "I Don't Know" by Eruption convey a sense of mistrust and frustration in a relationship. The song's narrator begins by stating that they never listen to a word the other person says because they don't believe them anyway. This suggests that the relationship has been marred by dishonesty and deception. The singer is skeptical of the other person's words and feels that they are constantly being lied to.


The lyrics further suggest that alcohol may be playing a role in clouding the singer's judgment. They mention not knowing if their skepticism is due to drinking. This indicates that alcohol may be impairing their ability to trust and understand the other person's behavior. The line "But your behavior has got me thinkin'" reveals that the other person's actions have led the singer to question their motives and intentions.


The second verse paints a picture of a person who is careless and inattentive. The singer accuses the other person of not remembering anything they say and spending their time idly smoking away the day. This portrays a sense of detachment and irresponsibility. The line "Your pants are stuck on a telephone wire" is perhaps a metaphorical indication of the other person being tangled in their own vices or distractions.


Despite the singer's own admission that they cannot believe anything the other person says, they also acknowledge that their own words may not hold any truth or significance. They state, "I wouldn't listen to a thing that I say" and "I don't remember anything I say anyway." This self-awareness highlights the chaotic nature of the relationship, where both parties struggle with being honest and trustworthy.


The chorus repeats the sentiment that the singer cannot believe anything the other person says and that their efforts to convince them are futile. The line "I already know that you're lying" emphasizes the singer's certainty in their judgment of the other person's dishonesty. It suggests that trust has been irreparably damaged in the relationship, leaving little room for reconciliation or meaningful communication.


Overall, these lyrics depict a relationship plagued by deceit, distrust, and a lack of accountability. The singer's skepticism, influenced by potential alcohol-induced confusion, reflects their struggle to make sense of the other person's behavior. The lyrics paint a somber picture of a relationship on the brink of collapse, where both parties are trapped in a cycle of lies and doubt.

maravillosa canción, con un ritmo muy pegajoso y en otro video en vivo es genial cuando aplaude junto al ritmo de la música, aquí aparece muy contenida, pero la canción es extraordinaria.
