In Case You Didn't Know
Murs Olly Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Maybe you're out tonight
With somebody else by your side
Oh oh oh oh
You forgot about me, yeah
And I guess you're moving on
You got sick of me like a song
Oh oh oh oh
That's playing on repeat

While you're living the good life
I feel a sharp knife
Stabbing me straight through the heart

You gotta know that I'm here all alone
Wondering if you feel this low
As I do without you oh oh oh oh
In case you didn't know
Since you left I've been miserable
Why did you have to go oh oh?

So I dated other girls, yeah
I tried everything in the world
Oh oh oh oh
To forget your face
Why would anyone stick around
When I get up screaming out
At the worst time
Your name

That's while you're living the good life
I feel a sharp knife
Stabbing me straight through the heart

You gotta know that I'm here all alone
Wondering if you feel this low
As I do without you oh oh oh oh
In case you didn't know
Since you left I've been miserable
Why did you have to go oh oh?

Can you hear me when I say
I really want you
I really need you
Oh oh oh oh
In case you didn't know
I really want you
I really need you
Oh oh oh oh
In case you didn't know

Don't even know if you care
That I'm waiting right here
Unable to make one move
Still waiting for you to call
Banging my head against the wall
I'm so hopeless without you

I'm here all alone
Wondering if you feel this low
As I do without you oh oh oh oh
In case you didn't know
Since you left I've been miserable
Why did you have to go oh oh?

Can you hear me when I say
I really want you
I really need you
Oh oh oh oh
In case you didn't know
I really want you
I really need you
Oh oh oh oh
In case you didn't know




In case you didn't know
In case you didn't know

Overall Meaning

The song "In Case You Didn't Know" by Murs Olly is about a man who is heartbroken after his girlfriend leaves him. He is struggling to move on and is wondering if she feels just as low as he does without her. The lyrics describe a man who has tried to date other girls and forget about his former partner, but he cannot seem to move past his feelings for her. He is left feeling alone, miserable, and hopeless without her.


The line "While you're living the good life, I feel a sharp knife stabbing me straight through the heart" particularly stands out as it portrays the stark contrast between the two characters' lives. The woman appears to be living a happy life while the man feels like he is suffering from heartache. The lyrics express the man's desire to reach out to his former partner and let her know how he feels, but he is unsure whether she even cares.


The song is relatable to anyone who has experienced heartbreak and a difficult breakup. The lyrics are emotionally charged, and the melody is melancholic and haunting, creating a perfect match with the song's theme. It is a touching ballad that captures the vulnerability and pain of love that has gone wrong.

this song reminds me high school days when my class had on a field trip.
we were on a bus and we chatted with some snacks.
I accidentally met this song, and recommended to my friends and they really loved it.
these days, their living places and jobs are different so that we can't meet frequently,
but listening this song still brings me the feeling cheerful and joyful of that time.

Thanks, olly murs.

Yes you can clearly relate at 14 because 13 and 14 year olds are definitely old enough for relationships
