Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You will understand everything that you need
You will comprehend everything, don't you see
How honest and true
How honest and true
You don't even know WHO I AM
You don't even know WHERE I
Where do I stop
You don't even know WHO I AM
Oh, but I am
You don't even know WHERE I
Where do I
Where do I
You've been sending me messages for so long
You don't understand, maybe you could be wrong
I won't forget you
I won't forget you
You don't even know WHO I AM
Oh, but I am
You don't even know WHERE I
Where do I stop
You don't even know WHO I AM
Oh, but I am
You don't even know WHERE I
Where do I
Where do I
Where do I
You will understand everything that you need
You will comprehend everything, don't you see
How honest and true

The lyrics to Yuck's song "Athena" seem to depict a conversation or exchange between two individuals. The first verse suggests that the singer is assuring someone that they will come to understand everything they need to know and comprehend what is happening. The repetition of "how honest and true" perhaps implies that the singer is being genuine in their words and trying to convey the truth to the person they are addressing. However, the second verse suggests that the person being addressed does not even know who the singer is or where they come from. This could be interpreted as the singer feeling misunderstood or not seen by the other person.
The chorus repeats the same lines, emphasizing that the person being addressed does not truly know the singer and where they come from. The verses then become more ambiguous, with the singer perhaps implying that the person has been sending them messages for a long time but still does not understand them. The repetition of "where do I" at the end of each verse could suggest the singer feeling lost or uncertain about their own identity and where they fit in.
Overall, the lyrics seem to convey a sense of communication breakdown and misunderstandings between two individuals. While the singer tries to reassure the other person that they will come to understand everything, the repetition of lines implying that the other person does not truly know them suggests a sense of frustration or disconnect.
