Tied Up
the Magician Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I met you when my heart was full
Now it's running empty
We went from irresistible
To something we don't even know
And it's terrrible I know
Why you, why you wanna call this love
Dirty little secrets when everyone you know knows me
Why you, why you wanna keep this going
Why we tryna be something knowing
Every little secrets, no we can't keep this up
All my friends know your friends
And now nothing's in confidence
When there's no one in between us
You and me we're too tied up
Got a screenshot from an unknown number
Someone you know doesn't like you
Won't pretend I'm any better
It's messed up but we don't stop
We're too tied up
We're too tied up
We're too tied up
We're too tied up
I can feel it in your kiss
Maybe we're both over this
Come on say something
Not like you not to answer back
Don't you dare blame it on my hands
Wrapped around your neck
Why you, why you wanna call this love
All we ever do is lie there's no
Dirty little secrets when everyone you know knows me
Why you, why you wanna keep this going
Why we tryna be something knowing
Every little secrets, no we can't keep this up
All my friends know your friends
And now nothing's in confidence
When there's no one in between us
You and me we're too tied up
Got a screenshot from an unknown number
Someone you know doesn't like you
Won't pretend I'm any better
It's messed up but we don't stop
We're too tied up
We're too tied up
We're too tied up
We're too tied up
All my friends know your friends
And now nothing's in confidence
When there's no one in between us
You and me we're too tied up
Got a screenshot from an unknown number
Someone you know doesn't like you
Won't pretend I'm any better
It's messed up but we don't stop
We're too tied up
We're too tied up
We're too tied up
We're too tied up
We're too tied up
The Magician's song "Tied Up" is a catchy but poignant reflection on a relationship that has changed from something irresistible to a mess of dirty little secrets, with no hope of untangling the knots that bind the two parties. The singer talks about how the relationship started when they were both in a good place, with his heart full of love, but it has now become empty. The relationship, which was once so promising, has deteriorated to the point where they barely know each other anymore, as they are both caught up in a web of lies and secrets.
The singer asks why they both want to call what they have "love," when the truth is that they are just lying to themselves and to everyone else around them. They can't keep their secrets hidden anymore, as all of their friends know each other and know what's going on. The two of them are too tied up together to escape their problems, and it's clear that things have gone too far.
The chorus repeats the idea of being too tied up, both physically and emotionally, with the mention of the screenshot from an unknown number adding an element of mystery and danger to the situation. Despite the problems, the two continue to be drawn to each other, unable to break free from the web they've woven around themselves.

You say we're irreplaceable
You once believed that we were unique and valuable
I met you when my heart was full
I fell in love with you when I was happy and content
Now it's running empty
But now my heart feels drained and hollow
We went from irresistible
We used to be desirable and attractive to each other
To something we don't even know
But now we have lost our connection and lost ourselves in the process
And it's terrible I know
And it feels awful and heartbreaking
Why you, why you wanna call this love
Why do you insist on calling this a loving relationship
All we ever do is lie there's no
When in reality, all we do is lie to each other and there is no
Dirty little secrets when everyone you know knows me
Keeping secrets from others is impossible because everyone knows us and our relationship
Why you, why you wanna keep this going
Why do you want to continue this charade
Why we tryna be something knowing
Why are we trying to be something we are not
Every little secret, no we can't keep this up
We can't keep up the facade of our relationship and keep every little secret hidden
All my friends know your friends
All my friends are friends with your friends
And now nothing's in confidence
And now there is no privacy or confidentiality
When there's no one in between us
When there is no buffer or third party involved in our relationship
You and me we're too tied up
You and I are too intertwined and enmeshed in our relationship
Got a screenshot from an unknown number
Received a screenshot from an unknown person
Someone you know doesn't like you
Someone who knows you doesn't have positive feelings for you
Won't pretend I'm any better
I am not claiming to be any superior or better than the situation
It's messed up but we don't stop
The situation is chaotic and wrong, but we can't seem to end it
We're too tied up
Our bond is too strong to break
I can feel it in your kiss
I can sense it from the way you kiss me
Maybe we're both over this
Perhaps both of us are done with this relationship
Come on say something
Please speak up and voice your thoughts
Not like you not to answer back
It's not typical of you to remain silent
Don't you dare blame it on my hands
Don't you dare shift the responsibility to me
Wrapped around your neck
In reference to the physical act of holding onto someone's neck
