Recognise
Lost Frequencies feat. FLYNN Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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

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
Follows me above my head

Oh, it rains, oh, it rains
Darker days, darker days

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

I don't even recognise
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
On the ropes, on the ropes
It's not me, yeah
I don't even recognise

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

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lost Frequencies' song "Recognise" featuring Flynn tell a story of feeling lost and unable to find a way out of a difficult situation. The singer describes feeling like something is creeping up on them at night and weighing them down, making it hard to swim against the open tide. The weight is so heavy that they don't even recognize their own heartbeat anymore.


The second verse finds the singer struggling to find a way out of the storm that is following them. They have always fought their battles, but the situation has become harder now that someone else is involved. The dark days have begun to rain down on them and they feel like they're losing time as they struggle on the ropes.


The chorus returns with the singer once again repeating that they don't even recognize themselves anymore, but now they are asking for help. They want someone to tell them something that they don't know, so they can break the chain and learn to let go. The song ends with the singer repeating that they feel like they're losing time and are on the ropes, but they still don't recognize themselves.


Overall, the lyrics to "Recognise" are a powerful message about the struggle of feeling lost and helpless in a difficult situation. The weight of the unknown can be heavy, but asking for help and looking for new perspectives can offer hope.
