Be the first to rate this song

Lyrics

Spinning my head round

Feeling disoriented or confused

You always like to keep me guessing

Expressing uncertainty and unpredictability in the relationship

I think I might fall down

Suggesting a potential emotional breakdown or collapse

Emotional whiplash got me guessing

Experiencing emotional turmoil and confusion

The way you always creep round

Describing a sense of constant vigilance and unease

Sleep with one eye open never resting

Unable to find peace or relaxation

Shadows on my wall

Noticing ominous or troubling signs

Who cast them all

Questioning the source or origin of the problems

Ripping the wallpaper

Symbolic act of removing the surface layer, revealing inner thoughts

From the bedroom of my mind

Metaphor for exploring one's inner thoughts and memories

You're ringing round my head

Feeling haunted or preoccupied by thoughts of the person

Now I want you gone again

Desiring distance or separation from the person

I hate the way you look at me

Disliking the way the person perceives or judges

And I hate the way I want you to be

Acknowledging conflicting emotions towards the person

Mine

Expressing a desire for a lasting connection

For the rest of time

Wishing for a long-lasting relationship

Till you inevitably kill me

Recognizing the potential harm or danger in the relationship

I'm not paranoid

Denying paranoia but emphasizing caution

I just like to cover all the exits

Explaining a tendency to plan for various outcomes

I'm not tryna fill a void

Clarifying no intention to fill an emotional void

I could've left you any second

Highlighting the freedom to leave at any moment

So why do I

Questioning the reasons for returning to the person

Still come back to you

Expressing a conflicted attraction despite reservations

When every time

Noting a recurring pattern of returning to the person

You look at me with those

Pointing out the intense and potentially harmful gaze

Killer eyes

Describing the person's captivating and dangerous eyes

Ripping the wallpaper

Repeating the metaphor of revealing inner thoughts

From the bedroom of my mind

Continuing the exploration of one's thoughts and emotions

You're ringing round my head

Reiterating the preoccupation with thoughts of the person

Now I want you gone again

Expressing a renewed desire for separation

I hate the way you look at me

Reiterating discomfort with the person's perception

And I hate the way I want you to be

Acknowledging conflicting desires regarding the person

Mine

Reiterating the wish for a lasting connection

For the rest of time

Expressing a desire for a timeless relationship

Till you inevitably kill me

Recognizing the potential harm or danger in the relationship (repeated)

Ripping the wallpaper (paper)

Repeating the symbolic act of revealing inner thoughts

From the bedroom of my mind

Continuing the metaphor of exploring inner thoughts

You're ringing round my head

Reiterating the preoccupation with thoughts of the person

Now I want you gone again (again)

Expressing a persistent desire for separation (repeated)

I hate the way you look at me

Reiterating discomfort with the person's perception (repeated)

And I hate the way I want you to be

Acknowledging conflicting desires regarding the person (repeated)

Mine (mine)

Reiterating the desire for a lasting connection (repeated)

For the rest of time

Expressing a wish for a timeless relationship (repeated)

Till you inevitably kill me

Recognizing the potential harm or danger in the relationship (repeated)
