Don’t Mind Me (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Chorus]
She’s telling the other person not to pay her any attention and not to feel bothered by her actions. She’s over the situation and doesn’t care what they think anymore. She’s making it clear that she’s moving on without regret.

[Verse 1]
Here, she questions why the person is still watching her or trying to engage with her. She reminds them they’re basically strangers now, and it’s time to move on. She doesn’t want their attention or effort anymore because they’ve lost that right. She’s shutting the door firmly, letting them know she’s not interested in their presence, opinions, or apologies. And with a sarcastic tone, she casually drops that she did what she had to do—and doesn’t really care if it shocked them.

[Refrain]
She’s calling out how the person keeps trying to come back, even after showing their worst side. They act like they care now, but she sees through it. She’s not buying their fake concern or excuses anymore and makes it clear she’s done with them for good.

[Pre-Chorus]
She’s saying everything between them is already in the past. She’s no longer the person they remember and definitely doesn’t feel bad about it. She’s moved on to the point that she doesn’t even have the energy or interest to deal with it.

[Chorus]
She repeats that she doesn’t want to be bothered, even if something is upsetting or annoying. This is the new version of herself—strong, independent, and uninterested in drama. She’s not playing along with their excuses or attention-seeking behavior. She wants all the meaningless noise and fake talk to be silenced. She tells them to stop thinking they still matter to her. She’s walking away, doing what’s best for her, and making it very clear they don’t have a place in her life anymore. There’s a bold confidence in the way she separates herself from them, like she’s finally free.

[Verse 2]
She’s showing confidence and sharp awareness here. She’s done playing their game, and it was never a challenge for her to spot the lies. Their tricks were too obvious, and she sees through it all. She’s letting them know that whatever they had—it’s tasteless and over. She’s not falling for it again.

[Pre-Chorus]
She’s telling them to let go of their unrealistic hopes. She’s no longer the soft version of herself who would smile and be nice. Now, she doesn’t feel sorry and doesn’t even have time to waste on them anymore.

[Chorus]
She keeps reinforcing the same point—she doesn’t care what they think or how annoyed they might be. She’s done listening to fake apologies or excuses. This is who she is now, and she’s owning it without second thoughts.

[Bridge]
In this part, she’s saying that whatever the person tries to say or do just doesn’t matter anymore. They’re watching her, but their gaze holds no weight. She’s walking her own path now and wants to make sure they know—they have no control over her and never will again.

[Chorus]
Once again, she’s shutting things down. Everything between them is finished, and she no longer resembles the girl they used to know. She’s not sorry for the way things turned out and wants all the pointless talk and fake excuses to stop. She’s done, firm, and fully owning her freedom.

[Outro]
With a little sass, she finishes off by saying she did what she had to do—and oh yeah, she’s not sorry about it.
