Don't Tell Me
View Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I'm sure I will in the next five seconds,
You see I have a telephone,
When people call they don't stop ringing for me,
Last night was as mystery,
So the words can create a picture for my mind to see,
Pictures seem to make me sweat,
Refuse to believe what you just told me,
Refuse to believe till you tell me slowly,
Or bring me down gradually.
Aremsee he under-stands,
He's not afraid to tell me about my late night shenanigans,
See I was put here for the world to see,
You can't tell me where I'm going or tell me who I'd like to be,
I don't intend to stop my drinkin',
I know I should and it's clever thinkin',
But don't tell me...
I don't know what I have done, but I'm sure I will,
In the next five seconds,
You see I have a telephone,
And when people call they don't stop ringing for me.
Things they change as you get older,
No longer a devil on each shoulder,
But please, please, please... don't tell me.
The song "Don't Tell Me" by View is a unique representation of a person's inability to accept responsibility for their actions. The lyrics highlight the singer's uncertainty about his past actions despite possessing a telephone that constantly rings with information. The lines, "I don't know what I have done, but I'm sure I will in the next five seconds/ You see I have a telephone/ When people call they don't stop ringing for me," suggest that he may have been involved in something questionable but is entirely unaware of his actions.
Furthermore, the song progresses to show the singer's primary concern about being judged by the world while also acknowledging that he was born to be seen. The lines, "See I was put here for the world to see/ You can't tell me where I'm going or tell me who I'd like to be," highlight the singer's need for self-discovery and individuality.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the singer's reluctance to accept the truth and take responsibility for his actions. The lines, "Refuse to believe what you just told me/ Refuse to believe till you tell me slowly/ Or bring me down gradually," suggest that he would instead escape harsh truths than confront them head-on.

I don't know what I have done,
I am not aware of my mistakes
But I'm sure I will in the next five seconds,
I am anticipating the consequences
You see I have a telephone,
I have a means of communication
When people call they don't stop ringing for me,
They continuously make contact with me
Last night was a mystery,
I can't remember my actions
So the words can create a picture for my mind to see,
I need someone to tell me what I did
Pictures seem to make me sweat,
The truth makes me uncomfortable
Something in the morning my sisters told me I would regret.
My sisters warned me of the consequences
Refuse to believe what you just told me,
I am in denial
Refuse to believe till you tell me slowly,
I need to hear the truth gradually
Or bring me down gradually.
I need to be eased into the truth
Aremsee he under-stands,
I have a friend who knows me well
He's not afraid to tell me about my late night shenanigans,
He will tell me the truth about my behavior
See I was put here for the world to see,
I am meant to be seen by others
You can't tell me where I'm going or tell me who I'd like to be,
I am in control of my own destiny
I don't intend to stop my drinkin',
I have no intention of quitting alcohol
I know I should and it's clever thinkin',
I am aware of the consequences of my actions
But don't tell me...
But I don't want to hear it
Things they change as you get older,
Things are different when you age
No longer a devil on each shoulder,
I am not tempted like I used to be
But please, please, please... don't tell me.
But I still don't want to hear the truth
