Read the Song Lyrics
Turn it up, this is my favorite song
Even better if you sing along
We can think on the years that go by
Or we could count all the tears that we’ve cried
But I, I don’t wanna know
Dylan Minnette finds comfort in music, calling this his favorite song. It would mean even more if they were singing along. He could reflect on the past—the good times or the heartbreak—but he’d rather not. Some memories are too painful to revisit.
So I blocked it out with the song and it went like
Do you like not having me at home?
Can you even get through this alone?
Well, I, I don’t wanna know
No, I, I don’t wanna know
He drowns out the thoughts with music, but questions still linger. Do they miss him? Can they handle life without him? The answers might hurt, so he chooses ignorance. Not knowing is easier than facing the truth.
Think I wrote you your new favorite song
Would you pan it, or would you sing along?
It’s more than likely that I’ll never know
But I’ll still look out for you at the show
He wonders if the song he wrote for them will mean anything. Will they love it, or just brush it off? He may never get an answer, but that doesn’t stop him from searching for them in the crowd, hoping they’re still listening.
When you’re waking up, who you gonna see?
Right side of the bed, looking back at me
Thought I heard a voice, thought I saw a face
It was but a noise gone without a trace
Even in their absence, their presence haunts him. He imagines them waking up next to someone new, replacing him. His mind plays tricks—he hears their voice, sees their face—but it’s just an illusion, disappearing before he can grasp it.
Will I hear it again? Will I see it again?
Will I feel it again?
Well, I, I don’t wanna know
No, I, I don’t wanna know
The uncertainty eats at him. Will they ever cross paths again? Will he ever feel the same love? He tells himself he doesn’t want to know—but deep down, he’s terrified of the answer.
