Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Grimes' song Genesis seem to be focused on the idea of the heart and its connection to emotion. The first half of the song repeats the same lyrics over and over again, emphasizing the fact that the singer has never really felt or seen or known her heart. This implies a sense of emotional disconnection or numbness. However, towards the end of the song, the tone shifts as the singer talks about understanding her heart and falling in love. The repetition of the phrase "home and I know" further emphasizes this sense of emotional security and understanding.


Overall, the song seems to be about the journey towards emotional awareness and understanding. There is a sense of longing for emotional connection in the first half of the song, and then a sense of relief and joy in the second half as the singer finds what they were looking for. The repetition of certain phrases and the use of staccato rhythms create a sense of urgency and intensity, as if the singer is desperate to find what they are looking for.


Line by Line Meaning

My heart, I never feel
I'm emotionally numb, I don't feel love or any strong emotions


I never see
I don't notice when someone is interested in me, I'm oblivious to romantic advances


I never know
I can't tell if someone loves me or if I love them back


Oh, heart
I'm talking directly to my heart, the source of my emotions


And then it falls
But eventually, my emotions do start to emerge and become overwhelming


And then I fall
I start to fall in love and become vulnerable


And then I know
I recognize that I am in love


Home and I know
When I return to my own thoughts and feelings, I realize how I truly feel


Playing the deck above
I'm in control, I'm playing the cards above everyone else


It’s always different
Every relationship is unique and unpredictable


I am the one in love
I have finally found love and am experiencing it for myself


Ever see, ever be, ever know my heart
Will anyone ever be able to truly understand my emotions and my heart?


My
Repetition of 'my' emphasizes the personal and emotional nature of the lyrics
