Lyrics
Headlines, you're comin' my way
Receiving news or attention directed towards the speaker
I'm readin', just what you wanna say
Understanding the intended message
I'm pleadin', get to feelin' better
Asking to start feeling better emotionally
didn't mean it, say it doesn't matter
Apologizing for something said and dismissing its significance
Feelin' just what I want to feel
Experiencing desired emotions
Time healin', tied to a spinning wheel
Time passing and the process of healing being uncertain, compared to a spinning wheel
I take you, keepin' you next to me
Accepting someone or something, maintaining closeness
Won't shake you, you know what I wanna be
Determined not to let go of the desired situation/goals
Your lines, strayed from the wishing well
Departing from hopeful or positive expectations
You're tryin' hard, yeah I can tell
Observing someone's effort or struggle
One look at me I know you well
Recognizing familiarity with someone based on a look
You skinning, you trip and fell
Metaphorically describing someone's downfall or misfortune
Danger, something I'll never be
Claiming to be free from danger or risk
Stranger, doesn't wanna know me
Expressing that someone doesn't want to connect or engage
Hey, your mind's getting older
Noticing someone's thoughts maturing or evolving
Don't beat a chip on a shoulder
Advising against holding onto a grudge or resentment
Your lines, strayed from the wishing well
Repeating the departure from hopeful or positive expectations
You're tryin' hard, yeah I can tell
Observing continued effort or struggle
One look at me I know you well
Reiterating recognition of familiarity based on appearance
You skinning, you trip and fell
Repeating the metaphorical description of someone's downfall or misfortune
Too far your fakin' scene I see
Realizing someone's deception or pretense
Your eyes roll down light on me
Feeling the impact of someone's gaze or attention
How should I tell you how I feel
Desiring to communicate emotions but facing difficulty
I'm bleedin' tied to a spinning wheel
Feeling emotionally drained and stuck in an unpredictable cycle
