Wishing Well
Lillix Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Trip and fall, put under your spell
And I would go under any day
For you my heart would drown in pain
It's sad to say it had to be done
But don't call to tell me you found the one
It hurts beyond what words can say
Lived in fantasy, you were meant for me
In a feeling, hearts revealing
Hear the symphony you took away from me
Lost your feeling, believing reality
The knight in shining never came
To pick me up and carry me away
I'm left here drowning in my tears
My wonderland now lives in fear
Lived in fantasy, you were meant for me
In a feeling, hearts revealing
Hear the symphony you took away from me
Lost your feeling, believing reality
Blind see it, deaf hear it
Love heal it, soon enough the numb will feel it
Blind see it, deaf hear it
Love heal it, soon enough the numb will feel it
Lived in fantasy, you were meant for me
In a feeling, hearts revealing
Hear the symphony you took away from me
Lost your feeling, believing reality
Deeper and deeper there I go
You don't know, that's why I weaken
Maybe some other time
(In a feeling, hearts revealing)
You don't know, that's why I weaken
Maybe some other time
(Lost your feeling, believing reality)
Maybe some other time
The lyrics to Lillix's song "Wishing Well" express the painful experience of unrequited love. The singer describes being completely taken in by this other person, to the point where she would go "under any day" for them. She has been "put under their spell" and is "leaning over wishing wells," hoping that her love will be returned. However, she ultimately realizes that it was not meant to be, and that the other person has found someone else. While she is devastated by this, she also acknowledges that it had to happen.
Throughout the song, there is a sense that the singer has lost touch with reality in her pursuit of this other person. She "lived in fantasy" and believed that this person was "meant for me." However, in the end, she is left to drown in her tears as her "wonderland now lives in fear." The reference to a "knight in shining armor" who did not come to save her reinforces this idea of a fairytale romance that ultimately falls apart.
The chorus of the song - "Blind see it, deaf hear it / Love heal it, soon enough the numb will feel it" - suggests that the singer is trying to come to terms with her heartbreak and move on. She is encouraging herself to open her eyes and ears to the reality of the situation, and to trust that love will eventually heal her pain.
Overall, "Wishing Well" is a poignant and relatable song about the pain of unrequited love and the struggle to come to terms with a shattered fantasy.
