In an interview with Nolala Andreas Moe explains that ‘Do You Even Know’ is about what happens after the breakup and how pain never strikes equally. There’s always one being hurt more and in this song, for him it’s hard to get rid of the thought that ‘She’s moved on’.
[Intro]
Do you even know what it feels like?
Do you even know what it feels like?
When lights go out
I've only really known myself
Through her eyes
[Verse 1]
She’s dressing up
I'm breaking down
Rep lips, new love got her glowing
She order long drinks
For long nights
I'm still blue as my poems
[Chorus]
A day is like a drink
A week i like a pill
But when I sober up, I am just as ill
And everybody hurts
But no one in this world
No one’s ever burnt like I'm burning for her
[Post-Chorus]
Just tell me know
Do you even know what it feels like?
Do you even know what it feels like
When lights go out?
I've only really known myself
Through her eyes
Do you even know what it feels like?
Do you even know what it feels like
When hearts burn out?
I've only really loved myself
Through her eyes
[Verse 2]
You live and learn
I toss and turn
I got rain, I got clouds
She got freedom
She love fast
I heal slow
I'm still blue as my poems
[Chorus]
A day is like a drink
A week i like a pill
But when I sober up, I am just as ill
And everybody hurts
But no one in this world
No one's ever burnt like I'm burning for her
[Post-Chorus]
Just tell me know
Do you even know what it feels like?
Do you even know what it feels like
When lights go out?
I've only really known myself
Through her eyes
Do you even know what it feels like?
Do you even know what it feels like
When hearts burn out?
I’ve only really loved myself
Through her eyes
[Bridge]
Have you ever loved someone
’Til you become someone
Who is half someone without her?
Have you ever loved someone
'Til you become someone
Who is half someone without her?
[Chorus]
A day is like a drink
A week i like a pill
But when I sober up, I am just as ill
And everybody understands
But they don’t understand
Say, have you ever felt the touch of her hands?
[Post-Chorus]
Just tell me know
Do you even know what it feels like?
Do you even know what it feels like
When lights go out?
I've only really known myself
Through her eyes
Do you even know what it feels like?
Do you even know what it feels like
When hearts burn out?
I've only really loved myself
Through her eyes
[Refrain]
And have you ever loved someone
'Til you become someone
Who is half someone without her?
Have you ever loved someone
’Til you become someone
Who is half someone without her?
[Outro]
Do you even know what it feels like?
Do you even know what it feels like
When lights go out?
Do you even know what it feels like?
