Twice Lyrics

[Intro]
Don't think twice, don't think twice
Don't, don't, don't think twice, don't think about it
Don't think twice, don't think twice
Don't, don't, don't think twice, don't think about it

[Verse 1]
When it's too much, there's a gun to my head
When it's too much, got me feeling so scared, yeah
Real talk with my demons lately, real talk in the mirror, save me
When it's too much (Too much), gotta live life good, appreciate it

[Pre-Chorus]
Nothing is forever, lucky to remember
Stay up in the moment, all night, all night, yeah

[Chorus]
All the things I love are gonna leave me
One day you're nеver gonna be therе
I tell myself to take it easy
Don't think twice about it, baby
Up on the hill, we'll see it all end
Die happy thinking 'bout my best friends
'Til then I'm diving off the deep end
"Don't think twice about it," I say
[Post-Chorus]
Don't think twice, don't think twice
Don't, don't, don't think twice, don't think about it
Don't think twice, don't think twice
Don't, don't, don't think twice, don't think about it
Don't think twice, don't think twice
Don't, don't, don't think twice, don't think about it
Don't think twice, don't think twice
Don't, don't, don't think twice, don't think about it

[Verse 2]
When I let go, let my body ascend
Let the love through, see the light at the end, yeah
Real talk with my demons lately, real talk in the mirror, so brave
When I let go (Oh-oh) , I'll say I lived life good, appreciated

[Pre-Chorus]
Nothing is forever, lucky to remember
Stay up in the moment, all night, all night, yeah

[Chorus]
All the things I love are gonna leave me
One day you're never gonna be there
I tell myself to take it easy
Don't think twice about it, baby
Up on the hill, we'll see it all end
Die happy thinking 'bout my best friends
'Til then I'm diving off the deep end
"Don't think twice about it," I say
[Post-Chorus]
Don't think twice, don't think twice
Don't, don't, don't think twice, don't think about it
Don't think twice, don't think twice
Don't, don't, don't think twice, don't think about it
Don't think twice, don't think twice
Don't, don't, don't think twice, don't think about it
Don't think twice, don't think twice
Don't, don't, don't think twice, don't think about it

[Outro]
Don't think, don't think twice
Don't think, don't think twice (Don't think, don't think twice)
Don't think, don't think twice (Don't think, don't think twice)
Don't think, don't think twice (Don't think, don't think twice)
Don't think, don't think twice (Don't think, don't think twice)
Don't think, don't think twice (Don't think, don't think twice)
Don't think, don't think twice (Don't think, don't think twice)
Don't think, don't think twice

About

Genius Annotation

“Twice” is the closing track from Charli XCX’s fifth studio album CRASH.

“Twice” is a song about worrying about the end of the world and telling yourself to take it easy and to not think twice about the decisions that you make in life because nothing is forever. Charli XCX further explained the song via Spotify:

This is a very important song to me because I’ve never written a song about the end of the world and this is what “Twice” is about, so it’s a different subject matter for me. I was kind of just thinking about you know how it would feel if/when the world ends, who I would think about, who I would miss, what memories I would keep at the front of my mind, and whether I would feel I lived my life exactly the way that I wanted to live it.

On March 19, 2021, Charli premiered “Twice” at her Bandsintown live stream concert, this version features alternate production from the final version.

Genius Answer

I had reservations about making this the last song because it’s such an obvious choice with the key change and outro. And generally speaking, I’m anti the obvious choice. But then George Daniel, who is very good with tracklisting, simply said, ‘You’re an idiot if you don’t put this song last.’ It’s actually interesting lyrically, because it’s about the end of the world and that you shouldn’t think twice about intimate moments, or these off-the-cuff moments. Essentially, YOLO, and enjoy delving into these once-in-a-lifetime situations that everybody ends up in. I was picturing the scene from [Lars von Trier’s 2011 film] Melancholia where Kirsten Dunst’s character is sat on a hill waiting for the end of the world. It’s a perfect closer, and I also think it’s a very beautiful song.
