Nobody Knows (song)

"Welcome to the End Of Your Life"
"****Nobody Knows****"
"A Kiss"

"**Nobody Knows**" is a song by the musical duo *The Driver Era*. It serves as the second track on The Driver Era's debut album, X. It was released as a promotional single on June 14, 2019.

## Background

On September 25, 2018, Rocky shared two Instagram stories showing the production process of the track. Months later, on October 5 of the same year, the track was presented at the concert '' Made In America '' and in a few more dates of the tour, The Driver Era Live!.

## Music and composition

In an June 2019 interview with W Magazine, when asked for the meaning behind the lyrics to the song, Rocky responded: "Life seems to always surprise me. No matter how consistent something can be or feel, six months later, that something that you thought you knew is no longer. ‘Nobody Knows’ reminds me of times like that,” before casually adding that “it’s also about groupies."

## Critical reception

W Magazine opined:

> "is so catchy that after even one listen, it's hard not to get the words stuck in your head. (That's particularly true of the chorus: "Nobody knows she likes to dance like a mad man / Nobody knows she wants to dance like his girlfriend.")"
>

ATWOOD Magazine opined:

> "While keeping the rock undertone, the track definitely sways into, and introducing the pop realm of The Driver Era. “Nobody Knows” is meant to be danced to with the volume all the way up."

## Lyrics

[Intro]

(Yeah, here we go, uh)

[Verse 1]

If she comes again to reap from the new band

Contoured her face to face all her new friends

Yeah, too much buzz, this stuff don't help decisions

Kneeling by her bed to make up for her sins

[Pre-Chorus]

’Cause everyone knows your heart, your heart

Everyone knows your heart, your heart

May not deserve your heart, your heart

Everyone knows your heart, your heart

[Chorus]

Nobody knows she likes to dance like a mad man

Nobody knows she wants to dance like his girlfriend

Nobody knows she likes to dance like a mad man

Nobody knows she wants to dance like his girlfriend (Yeah)

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, no, she don't know

No, she don't know

If you don’t tell, oh baby

[Verse 2]

He was always taught to hold back and blend in

Dress like your friends 'cause trends help you fit in, alright

Yeah, too much buzz, this stuff don't help decisions, ooh

Too much buzz, these drugs don't help decisions, oh

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause everyone knows your heart, your heart

Everyone knows your heart, your heart

May not deserve your heart, your heart

Everyone knows your heart, your heart

[Chorus]

Nobody knows she likes to dance like a mad man

Nobody knows she wants to dance like his girlfriend

Nobody knows she likes to dance like a mad man

Nobody knows she wants to dance like his girlfriend

[Bridge]

(Dance with me)

Oh, won't you dance?

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause everyone knows your heart, your heart

Everyone knows your heart, your heart

May not deserve your heart, your heart

Everyone knows your heart, your heart

[Chorus]

Nobody knows she likes to dance like a mad man

Nobody knows she wants to dance like his girlfriend

Nobody knows she likes to dance like a mad man

Nobody knows she wants to dance like his girlfriend (Yeah)

[Outro]

Oh, no, she don't know

No, she don’t know

If you don’t tell, oh baby

Oh, no, she don't know

No, she don’t know

If you don't tell, oh baby
