Spellbound
WVNDER Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I can′t schedule my feelings, and I'm no good at dealing with my own mind
And its unconscious decisions that lead to our collision, but it′s alright,
That's how I lie to myself, cause when I begin to wonder, I end up going under
In a spellbind, so I try to remind myself to come back down
I don't know if I′m ready to show the real me, most people find it overwhelming
Try my best to keep my heart at arms length, but I always seem to find it hanging out of my sleeve
And like before, I just can′t ignore the fire burning me inside
Fall for you early
Watch you run out on me
I can't hide my worries
You notice everything
I don′t know if I'll ever fall in love at the right time
So I chose to stay caught up in a white lie
I don′t know that you ever really wanted to be mine
Put on hold, like a letter that you won't write
So let it go, losing hope, I tumble out of the sunlight
All alone, as I wander through the cold night

In a spellbind, so I try to remind myself to come back down
My worrying and anxiety puts me in a trance-like state, so I try to remind myself to calm down and come back to reality
I don't know if I'm ready to show the real me, most people find it overwhelming

Try my best to keep my heart at arms length, but I always seem to find it hanging out of my sleeve
I attempt to keep my emotions and heart guarded, but they always end up spilling out and being on display

You notice everything
You are observant and able to pick up on my emotions and behavior

So I chose to stay caught up in a white lie
To avoid facing difficult truths, I deceive myself with a fabricated sense of reality
I don't know that you ever really wanted to be mine
I am uncertain if you truly desire to be in a relationship with me
Put on hold, like a letter that you won't write
Our relationship is postponed or stalled, like an unsent letter
So let it go, losing hope, I tumble out of the sunlight
I release my grip on our relationship, becoming discouraged and falling out of the good things in life
All alone, as I wander through the cold night
I feel lonely and lost, aimlessly moving through a dark and difficult time
