In 2010, Dizzy Mizz Lizzy undertook a reunion tour in Denmark and Japan in their original line-up. The popularity of Live in Concert 2010, recorded during this reunion, caused the band to consider a more permanent comeback, which they announced in late 2014. Their third studio album Forward in Reverse (2016), and its successor Alter Echo (2020) were both released to critical acclaim and helped regain their position as Denmark's most popular rock band. As of December 2022, the band has released four studio albums and three live albums.
Wishing Well
Dizzy Mizz Lizzy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
On the inside out
She said it's beautiful
With a silent shout
Take her by the hand
And you'll understand
I wish you well
With a wishing well
She said it's beautiful
In an angel's room
She said that contradiction
Will bring you doom
Take her by the hand
And you'll understand
I wish you well
She said it's beautiful
With a wishing well
The lyrics to Dizzy Mizz Lizzy's song "Wishing Well" depict a conversation between two people. The first person, the singer, is describing something as beautiful, both inside and out. The second person responds by acknowledging the beauty and adding that there is a silent shout accompanying it. This could be interpreted as the beauty being hidden or underrated, but still present and powerful. The singer then refers to a wishing well, which the beauty is said to be associated with. The wishing well represents a place of hope and desire, and possibly a symbol of reaching out for something unattainable.
The second verse adds another layer to the conversation. The singer mentions that something is beautiful in an angel's room, but then adds a warning: that contradiction will bring you doom. This can be interpreted in many ways, but it seems like the singer is cautioning against the dangers of idealizing something, or of seeing a beautiful exterior but ignoring the underlying contradictions or problems.
Overall, "Wishing Well" seems to be a song about the quest for beauty and hope, but with awareness of the potential pitfalls that come with it. The lyrics are relatively simple but leave room for interpretation and multiple layers of meaning.

She said it's beautiful

On the inside out
It possesses beauty within and outside
With a silent shout
Despite being quiet, it attracts attention and admiration
Take her by the hand

I wish you well
May you be fortunate and prosperous
She said it's beautiful

In an angel's room
It's delightful and flawless, just like an angel's dwelling
She said that contradiction
She mentioned that inconsistency and incompatibility
Will bring you doom
