W.Y.N.A
No Hot Ashes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Look at all the harm we′ve done
Im sorry I got stressed and started talking like a Tommy gun
Theres nothing left to say yet we take turns in speaking
I'll have to catch up on my sleep before we hit the weekend
Feels like we′re going in circles
Feels like we're going insane
It's taxing on our brains and I′m
But we'll be alright and we′ll be alright
Driving you up the wall just for the fun of it
Well I'm happy that you called when I was feeling sick
Been feeling this sense of doubt
When you′re not around
I digress I'm a mess just going on and on
I′m happy to be petty if we've settled on it going wrong
Nothing left to say, take turns in speaking
I'll have to catch up on my sleep before we hit the weekend
Feels like we′re going in circles
Feels like we′re going insane
It's taxing on our brains and I′m
So drained I know that you're the same
But we′ll be alright and we'll be alright
Driving you up the walls just for the fun of it
Well I′m happy that you called when I was feeling sick
Feeling the sense of doubt
When you're not around
You're as scarce
As Reese′s buttercups used to be
Before they were stocked in Sainsburys
Baby are you happy with me
I decree that you tell me
Feels like we′re going in circles
Feels like we're going insane
Feels like we′re going in circles and we're the same
The lyrics to No Hot Ashes's song "W.Y.N.A" paint a picture of a troubled and chaotic relationship. The singer acknowledges the mess and harm that they have caused, apologizing for their own moments of stress and aggressive communication. It is clear that both parties involved are constantly speaking, but not really saying anything meaningful. They feel the need to catch up on sleep before the weekend, indicating the exhausting nature of their relationship.
The repetition of the phrase "Feels like we're going in circles" emphasizes the cycle of repetitive and unhealthy behavior, leading to feelings of insanity. The strain on their mental well-being is evident, as they feel drained and understand that the other person feels the same way. Despite all this, there is an optimism expressed, a belief that somehow they will be alright, even if it feels like they are driving each other up the wall for fun.
In the second paragraph, the singer expresses gratitude for the other person's call when they were feeling sick, highlighting the small moments of support in their relationship. However, there is a sense of doubt that creeps in when the other person is not around. Their absence is described as scarce, creating a longing and insecurity within the singer.
The reference to Reese's buttercups being scarce before being stocked in Sainsbury's adds another layer of longing and a feeling of not being satisfied or fulfilled in the relationship. The singer questions the other person's happiness with them, wanting reassurance and a declaration of their feelings. This line suggests that the singer feels they have become less available and valuable in the other person's life.
The song concludes with the repetition of the phrase "Feels like we're going in circles," reinforcing the frustration and cyclical nature of their relationship. Despite the uncertainty and chaos, the final line suggests that they are still on the same path, perhaps indicating a willingness to continue trying to make things work, or a resignation to the fact that they are stuck in this destructive pattern.
