Nobody Knows
Jung Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We grow up against the odds, and I know that
We must play the part, so here we are
We linger on old mistakes
And all of the plans that failed, and I hope that
We can catch a break and run away
Nobody knows though we've been tryina find a way
Behind every closed door
Is just thousand more
No matter where you go
Don't worry 'bout the goal
'Cause nobody knows (papapada)
I don't, you don't
Nobody knows (papapada)
I don't, you don't
Waiting by a path
Thinking 'bout the past and the future
Should we keep it up and carry on?
Or let go of the dream
'Cause we've been floating with the stream
Should we go underneath the flow
But nobody knows about their final destination
Nobody knows though we've been tryina find a way
Behind every closed door
Is just thousand more
No matter where you go
Don't worry 'bout the goal
'Cause nobody knows (papapada)
I don't, you don't
Nobody knows (papapada)
I don't, you don't
When you feel like the weight of the world is crashing down on
You can have a look around
When you feel all the weight of the world upon you
No matter where you go
Don't worry 'bout the goal
Nobody knows (papapada)
I don't, you don't
Nobody knows (papapada)
I don't, you don't
Nobody knows (papapada) (no matter where you go)
'Cause nobody knows (papapada, ooh)
'Cause nobody knows
The lyrics of Jung's song "Nobody Knows" seem to speak to the struggles and uncertainties of life. The opening lines imply that the singer feels like they were dealt a bad hand from the beginning. Despite this, they acknowledge the need to keep going and play their part. The phrase "linger on old mistakes" suggests that they may be dwelling on past failures, but they express hope for a breakthrough and a chance to escape their troubles.
The chorus emphasizes the theme of uncertainty, as the singer acknowledges that nobody knows their final destination or how to find a way out. The repetition of "Nobody knows" reinforces a sense of universal uncertainty, highlighting the fact that everyone is facing their own struggles and lacks clear answers. The mention of closed doors and the idea that there are always thousands more behind them portrays a sense of endless challenges and obstacles to overcome.
The second verse introduces the idea of contemplating the past and the future, and the decision to either continue pursuing a dream or let it go. The line "should we go underneath the flow" suggests the possibility of giving in to the pressures and expectations of others. However, the overall message seems to be that regardless of the uncertainty and pressures, it's important to keep going and not worry too much about the ultimate goal. The repeated refrain of "Nobody knows" conveys a sense of shared vulnerability and reminds the listener that they are not alone in their struggles.
