No One Needs To Know
Haerts Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everybody needs some time away
The words are lost when words don't try to say
I got a secret no one else could keep
I'm never sure or trust it's just for me
And no one needs to know
No one needs to know
No one needs to know
Will you stay up all night
When I'm the only reason why, reason why
You say you want to know me now
But you never tried, never tried
And then out here we hear a little
Hear a little cry
You say you'll never speak about it
I'll take it till I die

Every time I walk these floors alone
Now you can find me through these walls of stone
I hold a heavy treasure in my chest
Until I let it go I won't confess
And no one needs to know
No one needs to know
No one needs to know

Will you stay up all night
When I'm the only reason why, reason why
You say you want to know me now
But you never tried, never tried
And then out here we hear a little
Hear a little cry
You say you'll never speak about it
I'll take it till I die

You never try to see me
You never ever, too hard
I didn't kiss one more last boy
I waited for us to guide

And no one needs to know
No one needs to know
No one needs to know!

Will you stay up all night
When I'm the only reason why, reason why
You say you want to know me now
But you never tried, never tried
And then out here we hear a little
Hear a little cry




You say you'll never speak about it
I'll take it till I die

Overall Meaning

The song "No One Needs To Know" by HAERTS delves into the idea of having secrets and keeping them hidden from the rest of the world. The opening lines "Everybody needs some time away, the words are lost when words don't try to say" suggests that sometimes taking a break and having some time to oneself can help in realizing the importance of keeping certain things hidden. The singer then goes on to reveal that they have a secret that is only known to them and that they never trust anyone to keep it safe. This sense of mistrust stems from the fear that if the secret gets out, it would no longer be something personal or special to the singer.


The chorus of the song emphasizes the importance of this secret and how nobody else needs to know about it. The lines "Will you stay up all night when I'm the only reason why" imply that the singer wants someone to stay awake for them, but not necessarily to reveal their secret to them. The second verse talks about the struggle of holding on to this secret and how it can sometimes feel like a heavy burden. The lines "I hold a heavy treasure in my chest, until I let it go I won't confess" suggest that although the secret is causing the singer pain, they cannot bring themselves to reveal it.


Overall, the lyrics of "No One Needs To Know" are a poignant exploration of the human desire to hold on to secrets and how difficult it can be to let go of them. The song provides a beautiful insight into the psyche of the singer and successfully captures their emotions and experiences.
