I Knew You Before

Dustin Kensrue

Transposer:

Dustin Kensrue I Knew You Before [Intro] You were once a sweet little girl so innocent and pure Your eyes were open and sure anyone could look right in. As I followed closely your gaze you looked up towards the sky And I watched your face drift away other things had caught your eye. Oh the magazines and media supplied you with their plastic protocol Oh and maybe music television really is the devil after all. But all I can say is I knew you before you were beautiful back then Before you grew up Before you gave in. You dream of sharing your heart instead you share your bed And your heart beats empty and cold with all the tears you have shed. And you dream of baring your soul instead you bare more skin And you wear dark glasses to keep anyone from looking in. Oh the magazines and media supplied you with their plastic protocol Oh and maybe music television really is the devil after all. But all I can say is I knew you before you were beautiful back then Before you grew up Before you gave in. And all you want is to hear the words "Dear baby I love you" So you hike your skirt higher still till their eyes are all on you. You drive in fast foreign cars the color of your sin And you tint your windows to keep anyone from looking in. But all I can say is I knew you before you were beautiful back then Before you grew up Before you gave in. But all I can say is I knew you before you were beautiful back then You could be beautiful again.

La chanson évoque le parcours d'une jeune fille, autrefois innocente et pure, qui a laissé son authenticité derrière elle en grandissant. Elle est confrontée aux influences de la société, notamment des médias et de la culture populaire, qui ont façonné son image et ses choix. Au lieu de chercher un amour sincère, ses aspirations se sont perdues dans une quête de validation superficielle, l'amenant à partager son corps plutôt que son cœur. L’artiste exprime sa connaissance de cette personne d’avant, soulignant qu'elle possédait une beauté intérieure qui pourrait encore resurgir si elle revenait à elle-même. Ce thème résonne particulièrement dans notre époque où l'image et les apparences peuvent prendre le pas sur les relations authentiques. La chanson nous rappelle l'importance de rester fidèle à soi-même dans un monde qui nous pousse souvent dans des directions contraires.
