You Know You Know You Know
Trash Boat Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
but I can't pretend I know a single thing
about what you've been feeling
A heavy burden to withhold, take my word a tortured soul's not a secret worth keeping
The sum of all fears closing in over these last few years
It pulls you under, so much deeper than I can venture
The past you knew overcome with black and blue
Become the light, see me through
So I'm writing songs, staying strong
Call me back it's been so long
Like a falling tide I recede to the void and belong
Until the better half of my indifference proves me wrong
Scars heal in time but I'm bleeding inside If I'm honest you haven't left me very hopeful but I hope you're wrong
And I promise agony won't be the only voice I carry on
So I'm writing songs, staying strong
Call me back it's been so long
Life just like you always said:
"If it can it will go wrong"
Writing songs, staying strong, off the ropes I'm already gone
Always falling could you call me back it's been so long
The lyrics of Trash Boat's "You Know You Know You Know" convey a sense of helplessness, as the singer creeps inside someone else's head but can't fully understand what they're feeling. The burdens of life weigh heavily on them as they try to keep their struggles hidden away. The chorus repeats the line "So I'm writing songs, staying strong, call me back it's been so long", suggesting that music and determination are the only things keeping them going.
The verses describe the overwhelming sense of dread that comes from the sum of all fears closing in over the years. The singer feels like they are being pulled under by the weight of their emotions, and that their past is something that has become a force of darkness in their life. However, the song does end on a note of hope, with the promise that agony won't be the only voice that the singer carries on.
The song touches on themes of mental health, perseverance, and the power of music to heal. The lyrics encourage listeners to hold on through tough times, to seek help if they need it, and to draw strength from the art that surrounds them. Overall, "You Know You Know You Know" is a poignant and emotional song about the pains and fears of life, and the hope that we can find even in the darkest of moments.

These guys remind me of Amber Pacific which hit me hard in my youth. Some say grow up others say hold on. Who knows. It feels the same when you grow up... You're still just holding on.
