Don't Lyrics

Just don't bother
Don't fed the animals
Don't let them run in circles
Don't be told
It just don't matter
It just don't matter
If you're more than ready, run away
From dusk to dawn

Last night on the couch you're livin'
It's a poor complaint
It's the only thing
You're sad and underweight
Whatever, we're so close to serious
Whatever promise you made
I have no problem to say no

I'll never know
I'll never know
I'll never know you
Restrained
Reach out for me
I'll never know
Don't

It's just another
It's just another complicated case
To settle down the road
Whatever we're too close to serious
Whatever promise you made
From dusk to dawn

Don't swear that it is your fault
You're sophisticated
I saw the chandelier
I'm folding under stress
Whatever we're too close to serious
Whatever comments you make
I hear them rattle to say no

I'll never know
I'll never know
I'll never know you
Restrained
Reach out for me
I'll never know
Don't

What is the Meaning of Don't?

Sometimes life feels like a maze where everything's uncertain and emotions are tangled. This song captures that sense of disconnection and ambivalence we often face in relationships. The repeated "I'll never know" suggests a struggle with understanding someone close, mixed with a fear of being restrained or held back. There's a plea for freedom and not being controlled by expectations. The lyrics also nod to feeling overwhelmed and underappreciated, hinting at a desire to break free from complicated situations. 🌪️ Despite being 'too close to serious,' the singer resists commitment, perhaps fearing the weight of it all. Ultimately, it's a reminder that sometimes stepping back and saying "don't" is the way to protect one's peace.
