WRAPPED AROUND YOUR FINGER
Post Malone Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You keep me wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
I was caught up in your orbit
Spinnin' like a bullet
I was wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
Then I shot back down to Earth
I can't call you right now, I been drinkin'
And I know that I'll say what I'm thinkin'
My whole life, I was drawn to the deep end
When will it sink in?
Why do I tell myself that I do the best I can?
I know damn well that you couldn't give a damn
Ten billion cuties that think I'm the man
But if you come around, I'll be eatin' out your hand

Keep me wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
I was caught up in your orbit
Spinnin' like a bullet
I was wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
Then I shot back down to Earth (shot back down to Earth)

I keep wonderin', who's the one replacin' me?
Take me back to yesterday
When I was wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
Then was shot back down to Earth (shot back down to Earth)

When we met, you ain't know I was a singer
You weren't impressed by all that ice on my finger (so icy)
I had your mom and daddy's house on my pinky (my pinky)
If I'da known what it'd be like now
I wouldn't be in misery right now
Look in the mirror, I don't see myself
Bein' with me has got to be like hell
So tell the devil I'ma be right down

You keep me wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
I was caught up in your orbit
Spinnin' like a bullet (spinnin' like a bullet)
I was wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
Then I shot back down to Earth (shot back down to Earth)

I keep wonderin', who's the one replacin' me? (Oh)
Take me back to yesterday
When I was wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
Then was shot back down to Earth (shot back down to Earth)

Yeah, I'm wrapped around, and around
And around on your finger now (ooh, ooh, ooh)
You got me wrapped around, and around
And around on your finger now (ooh, ooh)
I'ma be right down

You keep me wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
I was caught up in your orbit
Spinnin' like a bullet (spinnin' like a bullet)
I was wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
Then I shot back down to Earth (shot back down to Earth)

I keep wonderin', who's the one replacin' me? (Oh)
Take me back to yesterday
When I was wrapped around your finger




Wrapped around your finger
Then was shot back down to Earth

Overall Meaning

"Wrapped Around Your Finger" is a song by Post Malone that was released in 2019 in his album "Hollywood's Bleeding." The song is about the artist's fear of losing the person he loves, who keeps him wrapped around her finger. The title "Wrapped Around Your Finger" is a metaphorical expression that refers to being under somebody's complete control. The lyrics describe how the artist feels when he is with the person he loves, and how he longs to be with her again.


In the first verse, Post Malone tells how he was caught up in the orbit of the person he loves and how he was spinning like a bullet. He was completely wrapped around her finger, but then suddenly he shot back down to earth. The second verse contains another metaphorical expression when Post Malone says, "When will it sink in?" He is asking himself why he can't let go of the person he loves. He then mentions that he is aware that he can't call her when he is drinking because he knows he will say what he is thinking.


In the bridge, Post Malone wonders who is replacing him now that he is no longer with the person he loves, and he longs to be back in her arms again. In the final verse, Post Malone reminisces about how he met the person he loves and how he wished he had known how things would turn out with her. He also acknowledges that he is not good for her, and being with him must be hell. He tells the devil that he will be down there soon.


Line by Line Meaning

You keep me wrapped around your finger
You have complete control over me


Wrapped around your finger
I am under your spell


I was caught up in your orbit
I was completely enamored with you


Spinnin' like a bullet
I was completely consumed by you


I was wrapped around your finger
You had me wrapped around your finger completely


Then I shot back down to Earth
But then reality hit me and I realized the truth


I can't call you right now, I been drinkin'
I want to contact you but I know I am not in the right state of mind


And I know that I'll say what I'm thinkin'
I fear that I will reveal my true feelings


My whole life, I was drawn to the deep end
I have always tended towards risky behavior


When will it sink in?
When will I learn my lesson?


Why do I tell myself that I do the best I can?
Why do I lie to myself that I am doing my best?


I know damn well that you couldn't give a damn
I know that you don't care about me


Ten billion cuties that think I'm the man
I may have many admirers, but they do not matter to me


But if you come around, I'll be eatin' out your hand
But if you come back, I will do anything you ask


I keep wonderin', who's the one replacin' me?
I constantly worry who has taken my place in your life


Take me back to yesterday
I wish to go back to the past when we were together


When we met, you ain't know I was a singer
When we first met, you did not know I was famous


You weren't impressed by all that ice on my finger (so icy)
You were not attracted by my material possessions


I had your mom and daddy's house on my pinky (my pinky)
I promised you the world, even your parents’ house


If I'da known what it'd be like now
If I knew what would happen in the future


I wouldn't be in misery right now
I would not be suffering in my current state


Look in the mirror, I don't see myself
I do not recognize myself anymore


Bein' with me has got to be like hell
Being with me must have been torturous for you


So tell the devil I'ma be right down
I am ready to face any consequences for my actions


Yeah, I'm wrapped around, and around
Yes, you have absolute control over me


On your finger now (ooh, ooh, ooh)
I am completely under your spell now


I keep wonderin', who's the one replacin' me? (Oh)
I keep worrying who has taken my place in your life

LYRICS:

You keep me wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
I was caught up in your orbit
Spinning like a bullet
I was wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
Then I shot back down to Earth

I can't call you right now, I've been drinking
And I know that I'll say what I'm thinking
My whole life I was drawn to the deep end
When will it sink in?

Why do I tell myself that'll I'll do the best I can?
I know damn well that you couldn't give a damn
Ten billion cuties that think I'm the man
But if you come around, I'll be eating out your hand

Keep me wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
I was caught up in your orbit
Spinning like a bullet
I was wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
Then I shot back down to Earth (Shot back down to Earth)

I keep wondering who's the one replacing me?
Take me back to yesterday
When I was wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
Then was shot back down to Earth (Shot back down to Earth)

When we met, you ain't know I was a singer
You weren't impressed by all the ice on my fingers (So icy)
I had your mom and daddy's house on my pinky
If I'da known what it'd be like now
I wouldn't be in misery right now
Look in the mirror, I don't see myself
Being with me has gotta be like hell
So tell the devil I'ma be right down

You keep me wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
I was caught up in your orbit
Spinning like a bullet (Spinning like a bullet)
I was wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
Then I shot back down to Earth (Shot back down to Earth)

I keep wondering who's the one replacing me?
Take me back to yesterday
When I was wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
Then was shot back down to Earth (Shot back down to Earth)

Yeah, I'm wrapped around, and around, and around on your finger now
You got me wrapped around, and around, and around on your finger now
I'ma be right down

You keep me wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
I was caught up in your orbit
Spinning like a bullet (Spinning like a bullet)
I was wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
Then I shot back down to Earth (Shot back down to Earth)

I keep wondering who's the one replacing me?
Take me back to yesterday
When I was wrapped around your finger
Wrapped around your finger
Then was shot back down to Earth
