"Genesis" by Grimes is a euphoric electropop song that begins with the repetition of the lines, "My heart, I never feel, I never see, I never know." These lines may, at first glance, seem to indicate emotional numbing or detachment, as if Grimes was describing a heart that does not easily allow her to form strong emotions. Yet, the song seems to underscore how her heart falls and how she falls in love merely moments after. At its core, Genesis is a song about the quick and intense rush of first love. The opening lines are a depiction of loneliness, where Grimes feels disconnected, but as she falls in love, she is finally feeling something, finally seeing something, finally knowing something.
As the song continues, Grimes gives us a glimpse into the world of her and her lover. When she sings "Home and I know, playing the deck above, it's always different, I am the one in love," she is describing a space that is repeatedly changing, but her feelings remain constant. She has found her place, and nothing else matters. The song conveys a sense of freedom and liberation that comes with a true and genuine affection. Grimes' lyrics suggest that love is a force that can transform, enliven, and offer hope.
