Recognise
Lost Frequencies Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Something that you don't know
Feel it creeping on me in the night
Weight of it, I can't hold
Pushing me to swim against the
Open tide, open tide
Oh, I fight, oh, I fight

It's not me, yeah
I don't even recognise my heartbeat, yeah
Feel like I'm losing time
Here we go, here we go again
On the ropes, on the ropes
It's not me, yeah
I don't even recognise (ay)

(Ayy, ayy)
Ooh, ooh, ooh (Ayy)
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I don't even recognise

Always fought my battles
But now you make it hard for me to find
A way out of this storm (woah)
Follows me above my head and

Oh, it rains, oh, it rains (yeah, yeah)
Darker days, darker days (oh)

It's not me, yeah
I don't even recognise my heartbeat, yeah
Feel like I'm losing time
Here we go, here we go again (ayy)
On the ropes, on the ropes
It's not me, yeah
I don't even recognise (ayy)

(Ayy)
I don't even recognise (ayy)
Ooh, ooh, ooh (ayy)
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, getting me down, getting me down, oh

So tell me something that I don't know
Let's break the chain and learn to let go
I need you to show me, I need you to
Please tell me something that I don't know

It's not me, yeah
I don't even recognise my heartbeat, yeah
Feel like I'm losing time
Here we go, here we go again (yeah)
On the ropes, on the ropes
It's not me, yeah
I don't even recognise (ayy)

Ooh, ooh, ooh (oh)
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Feel like I'm losing time (yeah)
Here we go, here we go again
On the ropes, on the ropes
It's not me, yeah (hey)
I don't even recognise

Overall Meaning

The song "Recognise" by Lost Frequencies is about the feeling of being lost and struggling to recognize oneself. The lyrics express a sense of confusion and disorientation, as the singer feels like something is pushing them to swim against the tide and they don't even recognize their own heartbeat. The weight of the unknown is getting them down and causing them to feel like they are losing time. They are fighting to find themselves, but are always on the ropes.


The chorus of the song expresses a plea for help from someone who can guide them: "So tell me something that I don't know, Let's break the chain and learn to let go, I need you to show me, I need you to, Please tell me something that I don't know."


This song is a reflection on the challenges that come with personal growth and self-discovery. It speaks to the common human experience of feeling lost or stuck, but also to the hope that can be found in seeking help and learning to let go.
