Internet (The) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You brighten up my day
And when your skin touches mine
I get goosebumps right away
But you don't even know
Don't even know, know
I said you don't even know
As usual
I love your embrace
I'm a fiend for your attention
Yes I am baby
But you don't even know
Don't even know, know
I said you don't even know
Don't even know, know (said you don't even know)
You have no idea (said you don't even know)
But you don't even know
Don't even know, know
I said you don't even know
Don't even know, know (said you don't even know)
If you only knew
How I look at you
You'd call me crazy
But maybe it's you who
Who hasn't a clue
And you should already know
Already know, already know
Said you should
Already know
Already know, already know
You're the reason
I'm singing this song
When I say that
You're the beat in my heart, baby
And you should already know
Already know, already know
Said you should
Already know
Already know, already know
You have no idea (said you don't even know)
But you don't even know
Don't even know, know
I said you don't even know
Don't even know, know (said you don't even know)
You don't even know
You have no idea
You don't even know
You have no idea
You don't even know
You have no idea
You don't even know
You have no idea
You don't even know
You don't even know
You don't even know
You don't even know, know,know
You don't even know, know,know
You don't even know, know,know
Yeah
You don't even know
You don't even know
In the song "Don't You Know?" by The Internet, the lyrics detail the unrequited love of the singer towards their subject. The song starts off with a compliment; the singer thinks the other person is beautiful and makes their day brighter. The mere thought of them makes the singer feel alive. The singer confesses their attraction to the other person in the chorus, but laments that they are unaware of their feelings. They desire the other person's attention and embrace, but they remain unknown. The singer is convinced that they could never tell this person how they feel about them because they fear the other person might mistake them for crazy. The song ends with repetition that the other person doesn't even know.
The song infuses elements of R&B, soul, and funk, and uses the theme of unrequited love to explore the fear of rejection and the limbo of wanting to tell someone how you feel but not wanting to compromise a friendship. It's a relatable song for anyone who has experienced an unfulfilled crush.
Line by Line Meaning
You're beautiful
I think you're physically attractive
You brighten up my day
Being around you makes me happy
And when your skin touches mine
Physical touch with you gives me thrill
I get goosebumps right away
I'm very physically responsive to you
But you don't even know
You're not aware of my feelings for you
As usual
This is a common thing for me
I love your embrace
I find your hug comforting
I'm a fiend for your attention
I crave your attention
Yes I am baby
This is who I am
You have no idea
You're completely unaware of my feelings for you
If you only knew
If you were aware
How I look at you
The way I see you
You'd call me crazy
You might think I'm insane
But maybe it's you who
Maybe you're clueless too
Who hasn't a clue
Who doesn't know what's going on
And you should already know
You should be aware already
You're the reason
You're the cause
I'm singing this song
This is why I'm singing
When I say that
When I mean that
You're the beat in my heart, baby
You're the reason my heart beats
You don't even know
You're not aware
You don't even know
You're not aware
You don't even know
You're not aware
You don't even know
You're not aware
You don't even know
You're not aware
You don't even know
You're not aware
You don't even know
You're not aware
