Ah-ah

Did the world stop spinnin'?
Nothing seems to change
I'm stuck at the beginning, and I'm in pain
Did the sun stop risin'?
'Cause the sky's so gray
Did the world stop spinnin' today?

I woke up, fell back to sleep
'Cause I'd rather live in my dreams
I lay here wonderin' why

Did the world stop spinnin'?
Am I frozen in time?
'Cause the birds stopped singin'
Are we flawed by design?
My heartbeat's racin' like a strange ballet
Did the world stop spinnin' today?

I woke up, fell back to sleep (sleep)
'Cause I'd rather live in my dreams (ah, ah, ah)
I lay here wonderin' why

Did the world stop spinnin' or did I?
The world has stopped spinnin'
The lights are all dimmin'
And ah-ah
The world has stopped spinnin'
The end is beginning, ah-ah
Ah-ah
Ah-ah
Ah-ah
Ah-ah

Will the world stop spinnin'?
Nothing seems to change
I'm stuck at the beginning, and I'm still in pain
Why'd the sun stop shinin'?




Why's the sky still grey?
Oh, the world stopped spinnin' today

Overall Meaning

"Spinnin" by Madison Beer is a song that explores feelings of stagnation and despair. The lyrics depict a sense of hopelessness and confusion, questioning whether the world has come to a halt. The opening lines of the song repeat the phrase "Did the world stop spinnin'?" suggesting a state of disbelief or shock about the current state of affairs. The repetition emphasizes the feeling of being stuck and the inability to perceive any change or progress.


The song continues to express a yearning to escape from reality. The singer admits to preferring to live in their dreams rather than facing the harshness of the real world. This desire to retreat from the pain and uncertainty is represented by the line "I woke up, fell back to sleep" - effectively using sleep as a coping mechanism to avoid reality.


The chorus introduces a sense of doubt and introspection. The singer questions if they are frozen in time or if the world itself has stopped spinning. The mention of the birds no longer singing adds to the feeling of desolation and lack of vitality. This introspection leads to a heightened awareness of one's own heartbeat in a metaphorical ballet, reflecting the tumultuous emotions and confusion experienced.


Towards the end of the song, the lyrics suggest a continuation of the initial question, "Will the world stop spinnin'?" This repetition reinforces the uncertainty and longing for change. The mention of the sun not shining and the grey sky again emphasizes the feelings of gloom and despair.
