Destination Unknown
Sash! Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Life is so strange when you don't know
How can you tell where yore' going to
You can't be sure of any situation
Something could change and then you won't know

Ask youself where do we go from here
It seems so all to clear
Just as far beyond as I can see

I still don't know what this all means to me

Tell yourself I have nowhere to go
I don't know what to do
And I don't even know the time of day
I guess it doesn't matter any way

Life is so strange destination unknown
When you don't know your destination
Something could change it's unknown
And then you won't know destination unknown

Life is so strange destination unknown
When you don't know Your destination
Something could change It's unknown
And then you won't know destination unknown

You ask yourself when will my time come
Has it all been said and done
I know I'll leave when it's my time to go
Till then I'll carry on with what I know

Life is so strange destination unknown
When you don't know your destination
Something could change it's unknown
And then you won't know destination unknown

Life is so strange destination unknown
When you don't know your destination
And something could change it's unknown
And then you won't know destination unknown

Life is so strange [repeat 8 times]

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sash!'s "Destination Unknown" talk about the uncertainty of life and the feeling of not knowing where one is headed. The song starts by acknowledging that life is strange when you don't know where you're going. The singer expresses uncertainty and acknowledges that situations can change without notice, leaving one unsure. The lyrics question where we go from here, admitting that even as far as one can see, it's unclear what life means.

The chorus repeats that life is strange when you don't know your destination, and something can change at any moment, making it that unknown destination even more obscure. The following verse says that the singer doesn't know where to go, what to do, or even the time of day, but it doesn't matter because life is so strange.

Finally, the lyrics move on to a more positive message, indicating that the singer understands that everyone will eventually leave when their time comes, but until then, one must carry on with what they know. In sum, the song imparts a message of acceptance of life's uncertainties and reinforces the idea that one should focus on what they know and move forward, despite the lack of clarity.

Line by Line Meaning

Life is so strange when you don't know
The instability of life can make it difficult to predict outcomes

How can you tell where yore' going to
It's impossible to know exactly where life will take you

You can't be sure of any situation
Uncertainty is always present, even in familiar situations

Something could change and then you won't know
Unexpected events can derail life's plans and cause confusion

Ask youself where do we go from here
Questioning one's path in life is natural

It seems so all to clear
Sometimes the direction life is taking seems obvious

Just as far beyond as I can see
The future is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty

I still don't know what this all means to me
The meaning and purpose of life remain elusive

Tell yourself I have nowhere to go
Feeling lost and directionless is a common experience

I don't know what to do
The confusion of not knowing what steps to take next

And I don't even know the time of day
A feeling of disconnection from reality and everyday life

I guess it doesn't matter any way
A resigned acceptance of the unknown and a lack of control

You ask yourself when will my time come
Questioning when one's life will come to fruition

Has it all been said and done
Wondering if everything has already happened and the future is predetermined

I know I'll leave when it's my time to go
Accepting that one's life will end when it's meant to

Till then I'll carry on with what I know
Making the most of everyday life, despite the unknown

Life is so strange destination unknown
The journey of life is full of twists and turns, with no defined endpoint

When you don't know your destination
The unknown and unpredictable nature of the future

And something could change It's unknown
Life can change suddenly and unexpectedly

And then you won't know destination unknown
The unknown future can cause feelings of confusion and uncertainty

Life is so strange [repeat 8 times]
Reinforcing the theme of the unpredictable nature of life
