Drive and Disconnect
Nao Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Run, run, running
Drive me away, I
See 'em come, come, coming
Don't wanna stay, wanna stay in
Days like, days like this, like this
Find a better place in this madness

Trying to escape from them, from them

I guess, I guess, I guess

We drive and we disconnect
We drive and we disconnect
Send my best, no regrets
With the wind, I'm gone
I guess, I guess
We drive and we disconnect

Tell me to stay
But I can't, even if I wanted
Tell me to lie
But I committed too many crimes
Let's stay like, stay like this, like this
Why can't we remain like this, like this?

Trying to escape from them, from them
I guess, I guess, I guess

We drive and we disconnect
We drive and we disconnect
Send my best, no regrets
With the wind, I'm gone
I guess, I guess
We drive and we disconnect

Heaven know
Look what you do to me
Heaven know
Look what you do to me
Heaven know
Look what you do to me
Heaven know
Look what you do to me

We drive and we disconnect
We drive and we disconnect
Send my best, no regrets
With the wind, I'm gone
I guess, I guess
We drive and we disconnect

Heaven know
Look what you do to me
Heaven know
Look what you do to me
Heaven know
Look what you do to me

Heaven know
Look what you do to me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Nao's song "Drive and Disconnect" are about the desire to escape from something, whether it be past mistakes, toxic situations or relationships, or just the chaos of everyday life. The repetition of "drive me away" and "don't wanna stay" emphasizes the desire for distance and freedom. The line "Tell me to stay, but I can't even if I wanted" suggests that the singer is being pulled in a different direction from those urging them to stay. The chorus "We drive and we disconnect" reinforces this idea of temporary escape, where the singer is physically leaving a situation but still feeling the emotional weight of it.

The second verse, with the line "Let's stay like this, like this, why can't we remain like this, like this?" adds another layer of complexity to the message of the song. While the singer is trying to escape from something, there is also a sense of longing for the positive aspects of the situation they are leaving behind. The repetition of "Heaven know, look what you do to me" suggests that the singer is torn between escaping and staying, and is struggling to find a balance between the two.

Overall, "Drive and Disconnect" is a song about the desire for temporary escape, and the emotional toll that comes with it. The repetition of certain phrases and the addition of conflicting emotions add depth to the lyrics and make the message more relatable.

Run, run, running
I am trying to run away quickly

Drive me away, I
I want to be driven away from here

See 'em come, come, coming
I see them approaching

Don't wanna stay, wanna stay in
I do not want to stay here, I want to find a better place

Days like, days like this, like this
On days like this, I wish I was somewhere else

Find a better place in this madness
I am looking for a better place to escape from this madness

Trying to escape from them, from them
I am trying to escape from those people

I guess, I guess, I guess
I am not sure if I will be able to escape

We drive and we disconnect
We drive away and forget about everything else

Send my best, no regrets
I am leaving my best behind and I do not regret it

With the wind, I'm gone
I am leaving without a trace

Tell me to stay
You are telling me to stay

But I can't, even if I wanted
I cannot stay even if I wanted to

Tell me to lie
You are telling me to lie

But I committed too many crimes
I cannot lie because I have done too many bad things

Let's stay like, stay like this, like this
I want to remain like this and not go back

Why can't we remain like this, like this?
Why can't we stay here and not go back?

Heaven know
God knows

Look what you do to me
See what you are doing to me
