Ada sesuatu yang menarik dari “when you know you know”. Sidney membawa kita ke momen ketika keraguan akhirnya berhenti berisik, lalu menyisakan satu hal sederhana, kita ternyata sudah tahu jawabannya sejak awal.

Gitar akustik dan ketukan yang halus bergerak dengan tempo santai, memberi ruang bagi cerita mengalir tanpa terburu-buru. Vokal Sidney terasa dekat dan bernapas, dibantu harmoni belakang yang rapi.

“You’re gonna fall down into pieces, only to find them when you need it” menggambarkan proses berantakan sebelum akhirnya menemukan kejelasan. Baris “it was the hardest way to go, I guess you only know it when you know, you know” jadi inti lagu ini.

“when you know you know” juga terasa makin kuat setelah mendengar ceritanya. Ada rasa lega, sedikit getir, dan pengakuan bahwa jalan yang paling susah kadang memang baru terlihat masuk akal setelah semuanya selesai.

Lirik Lagu Sidney – when you know you know

Was only pushing something honest
I always wanted what he wanted
When I burst into tears
In my own front seat
Surely I had the right to be cautious
Dragging things out was the constant
By not choosing
He chose to leave all this
And I learned what I wanted

You’re gonna write things down then forget them
You’re gonna say things you never meant
You’re gonna fall down into pieces
Only to find them when you need it
So it’s the best thing you ever had
But you can see now looking back
It was the hardest way to go
I guess you only know it
When you know, you know

You know, you know
You know, you know

Mmmmm

You’re sitting with me at a cafe
Tell me how much you’re gonna change him
Putting ‘right?’ at the end of each sentence
But your face answers every question
Who are you tryna convince?
'Cause I’m not the one for who’s paying for it
And if you’re asking me to be honest

Well, you’re gonna write things down then forget them
You’re gonna say things you never meant
You’re gonna fall down into pieces
Only to find them when you need it

So it’s the best thing you ever had (best thing)
But you can see now, looking back
That it was the hardest way to go
I guess you only know it
When you know, you know

You know, you know
You know, you know (I hope you know)

Mmmm

You’re gonna write things down then forget them
You’re gonna say things you never meant
You’re gonna break down into pieces
Only to find them when you need it
So it’s the best thing you ever had (best thing)
But you can see now looking back
It was the perfect way to go
I guess you’d only know it
When you know, you know

You know, you know
I hope you know (I hope you know)

Mmmm
