OWN MY MIND
Maneskin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well I don't know your secrets, I'm no visionary
Yeah, I don't know your story but I like what I see
So, tell me what you've been missing
I'll do anything to get you ticking
And you might be the answer to the sinner in me

Oh, it's automatic
You know I just gotta have it
I'll make your body a habit
You know there's some kind of magic, uh-huh

Do you wanna, do you wanna
Own my mind, own my mind?
Do you wanna, do you wanna
All the time, all the time?
Do you wanna know what the good good bad things all feel like?
Yeah, do you wanna, do you wanna
Own my mind, own my mind?
Own my mind, own my mind?
Own my mind, own my mind?
Do you wanna know what the good good bad things all feel like?
Do you wanna, do you wanna
Own my mind, own my mind?

In my civilization you're the king and the queen
I'm praying at your altar
If you know what I mean
Yeah, everything I've been missing
You've been serving up in your kitchen
No, I'm not even superstitious
But I'm feeling you're something vicious, yeah

It's automatic
You know I just gotta have it
I'll make your body a habit
You know there's some kind of magic, uh huh

Do you wanna, do you wanna
Own my mind, own my mind?
Do you wanna, do you wanna
All the time, all the time?
Do you wanna know what the good good bad things all feel like?
Yeah, do you wanna, do you wanna
Own my mind, own my mind?
Own my mind, own my mind?
Own my mind, own my mind?
Do you wanna know what the good good bad things all feel like?
Do you wanna, do you wanna
Own my mind, own my mind?

Do you want a long night?
Do you wanna be mine?
Do you wanna go once, go twice?
Uh-huh
Do you wanna a long night?
Do you wanna be mine?
Do you wanna go once, go twice?
Uh-huh

Do you wanna, do you wanna
Own my mind, own my mind?
Do you wanna, do you wanna
Own my mind, own my mind?
Do you wanna know what the good good bad things all feel like?




Do you wanna, do you wanna
Own my mind, own my mind?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Own My Mind" by Maneskin convey a sense of attraction and seduction between two individuals. The singer acknowledges that they do not know the other person's secrets nor their story, but they are drawn to what they see. The singer offers to fulfill what the other person has been missing and declares that they might be the answer to the "sinner in me." The chorus of the song repeatedly asks if the other person wants to "own my mind," implying a desire for a deep connection and a willingness to surrender control.


The second verse continues with the theme of worship, with the other person being referred to as the "king and the queen" and the singer praying at their altar. The other person is fulfilling everything the singer has been missing, and the enthusiasm grows stronger with each repeating chorus. The bridge offers a proposition of a "long night" and asks if the other person wants to "be mine" with the repetition of "do you wanna go once, go twice?"


Overall, the lyrics suggest a desire for a complete surrender to desire and potentially to another person. The theme of worship and submission is strong, with the repetition of "own my mind" implying a desire to give over control completely to another.
