Wouldn't Do it Again
Intwine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Did it get me somewhere, I don't know
Feel so insecure
Wouldn't show it that's something for fools
I know somehow it'll have to be better than this
Somewhere out there, there will be someone to take me away
I'm so sick of this done looking for bliss
I'm not saying I'm right just to tired to fight
If I knew I wouldn't do that again
Beaten down before
Before anyone gave it a chance
Easily ignored
Judgments made based on nothing at all
I know someday it will make sense to me, I am sure
But until then, I'll be waiting for miracles
I wouldn't do that again
The lyrics of the song "Wouldn't Do it Again" by Intwine showcase the feelings of the singer who has followed all the rules but is still unsure if it has led them somewhere meaningful. The insecurity the singer feels is not something they would show because it is foolish. They hope that there will be someone out there who will take them away, someone who will show them the way to true bliss. The singer admits that they are tired of searching and wish for a sign to appear that will guide them towards their destiny.
The lyrics also express the singer's hopeless feelings of being beaten down before. The singer was ignored and judged based on nothing at all, which led to their demotivation. However, the singer is optimistic that someday, the situation will make sense, and they will find a way out of it. Until then, they will be waiting for miracles to happen.
The song perfectly captures the theme of a person who is struggling to find their true self and is hoping for something meaningful to happen in their lives. The introspective nature of the lyrics and the emotive singing style of the singer make the song relatable and impactful.
