JENNIE “Twin” Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's like I'm writing a letter
And I put in a twelve-ounce bottle of Heineken
In the Atlantic on a whim
'Cause I know I've been gone too long
But I'm writing a song

[Refrain]
It's like I'm writing a letter, but I'm writing a song
It's like I'm writing a letter, but I'm writing a song
It's like I'm writing a letter, but I'm writing a song

[Verse 2]
Can you just bear with me? We were ten years in
And young and dumb and innocent, my friend
But I knew all along that we were both wrong

[Refrain]
It's like I'm writing a letter, but I'm writing a song
It's like I'm writing a letter, but I'm writing a song
It's like I'm writing a letter, but I'm writing a song

[Pre-Chorus]
I didn't leave ya, I still see ya
When I'm bumping Ashanti, yeah, on a beach, yeah
I didn't hold ya, but I still know ya
We will make up, make things right when we get older, friend

[Chorus]
Twin, twin, twin
You and I, we drifted apart
Twin, twin, twin
Like the white clouds under the stars

[Verse 3]
Do you feel a way
I blamed the timing? Wasn't timing
We was fighting and colliding, man
I just couldn't stay
And I keep your name so, so, so tightly to my heartbeat
Guess I lost you and you lost me, but I put fuel to your flame

[Pre-Chorus]
I didn't leave ya, I still see ya
When I'm bumping Ashanti, yeah, on a beach, yeah
I didn't hold ya, but I still know ya
We will make up, make things right when we get older, friend

[Chorus]
Twin, twin, twin
You and I, we drifted apart
Twin, twin, twin
Like the white clouds under the stars


[Outro]
Twin, twin, twin
You and I, we drifted apart
Twin, twin, twin

JENNIE “Twin” Meaning

Jennie describes “Twin” as the most personal track on Ruby, closing the album with a melancholic reflection on a past relationship. In an interview with Zane Lowe, she revealed that writing the song gave her a sense of closure, allowing her to process her emotions and express feelings she had kept inside. The song unfolds like a heartfelt letter, addressing someone she once shared a deep bond with, expressing both nostalgia and regret. Despite acknowledging the distance that has grown between them, she holds onto the hope that as time passes, they may reconnect and make things right.

Fans have speculated that the song was inspired by her longtime friendship with Cha-hee, a former member of Melody Day. The two have reportedly grown apart in recent years. This theory gained further attention when Cha-hee liked a fan comment suggesting “Twin” was written about her.

However, some netizens believe the song could be referencing Jennie’s rumored past relationship with V (BTS). They speculate that she subtly acknowledged their breakup. The speculation is fueled by their past matching outfits and dating rumors, which were widely discussed online. Since Ruby was written over the past two years, the timing has led some to draw connections between “Twin” and Jennie’s reported split with V. Despite all the speculation, neither Jennie nor V has ever confirmed or denied the relationship, leaving room for endless theories.

Many fans believe that such rumors should not overshadow the music itself, emphasizing that an artist’s creative work and personal life should remain separate.
