Wasted
Angus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't know just what I'll do
Every time you walk into the room
Oh my head is spinning around
And I can't see clearly right now

I'm wasted
I'm so wasted on you
I'm so wasted on you

I don't know if I'll survive,
In this magical land behind your eyes.
And there's all these funny little men,
There all asking me to dance and sing.

I'm wasted
I'm so wasted on you
I'm so wasted on you

Red and yellow, pink and green, purple and orange and blue.
Are all of the colors I see my love, every time I see you.

I'm wasted




I'm so wasted on you
I'm so wasted on you

Overall Meaning

The opening of Angus's song "Wasted" portrays a sense of vulnerability and a sense of being unable to control himself around the person he is singing to. He admits his helplessness and admits that every time the person walks into the room, he gets completely overwhelmed, and everything around him seems to spin. Angus hence portrays the feeling of infatuation that stays with you and makes you lose touch with everything happening around you.


He then proceeds to explain that he does not know if he will survive the magical land behind the person's eyes. Here, he is talking about the person he is singing about, and how he is so captivated by their beauty, and he feels like he is in another world whenever he sees them. He then proceeds to talk about the "funny little men" who are asking him to dance and sing. Here, Angus could be referring to different distractions that could come in between his love for the person he is singing about. It could also portray his sense of disorientation whenever he is around the person, and how there are other distractions that happen, but his affection and love for the person always pull him back.


The chorus then starts with the line, "I'm wasted, I'm so wasted on you", which portrays the overwhelming feeling of infatuation that is hard to control. He is trying to explain how much he is drawn to this person, and the feeling is so strong that it is making him lose control of himself. The second verse ends with a description of colors, which Angus sees whenever he looks at the person he is singing about. The colors mentioned represent brightness, love, and a sense of joy. The song portrays how love, and the feeling of being in love, can fill your entire world with beauty and happiness.


Line by Line Meaning

I don't know just what I'll do
I am uncertain about what course of action to take


Every time you walk into the room
The mere presence of you in my space causes a significant change within me


Oh my head is spinning around
My thoughts and emotions are spinning and chaotic


And I can't see clearly right now
I am unable to see or think clearly due to the overwhelming effect you have on me


I'm wasted
I am intoxicated or highly affected by your presence


I'm so wasted on you
You have affected me to such an extent that I am completely consumed by you


I don't know if I'll survive,
The intensity of my feelings for you has led me to question if I can handle them


In this magical land behind your eyes.
Your eyes hold such an allure, I feel like I am transported to another realm when I look into them


And there's all these funny little men,
I am encountering many strange experiences and encounters because of my infatuation with you


There all asking me to dance and sing.
These experiences demand much of me, almost as if they are calling me to perform or put on a show


Red and yellow, pink and green, purple and orange and blue.
My perception of the world around me has become colored by my emotions for you


Are all of the colors I see my love, every time I see you.
My reality is so imbued with you that everything I see is viewed through the lens of my feelings for you

Lyrics
I don't know just what I'll do
Everytime you walk into the room
Oh my head is spinning around
And I can't see clearly right now

I'm wasted
I'm so wasted on you [x2]

I don't know if I'll survive,
In this magical land behind your eyes.
And there's all these funny little men,
There all asking me to dance and sing.

I'm wasted
I'm so wasted on you [x2]

Red and yellow, pink and green, purple and orange and blue.
Are all of the colours I see my love, everytime I see you.

I'm wasted
I'm so wasted on you [x2]

Why aren't these kids world famous? I can't recall hearing such talent since I don't know when. Gorgeous music. Truly a unique and euphonic sound.

I love the double connotations with this song, depending on how I listen, I can hear 'I am wasted; intoxiated with your presence' or 'I am wasted; my love is fruitless, and cannot be returned. '

@yuweeandkyst

All the colours by angus is the reggae version of this song, and it's absolutely awesome.
