Wind me up

Feels like a broken toy
Waiting to be destroyed
Time keeps on creeping by every hour
Every hour

She’s like a loaded gun
Waits for the setting sun
Time keeps on slipping by every hour
Every hour

She was the queen of silver linings
Now she is the one who lives with ghosts

Spinning out of control
Hoping this heartache will end
Trying hard to let go
She’s tired she’s empty again
She says “Wind me up”

It’s always a little while
Before she remembers why
Nobody’s coming home
So there’s no purpose

She lost him years ago
Five years of vertigo
There’s nothing left to give
On the surface

She was the queen of silver linings
Now she is the one who lives with ghosts

Spinning out of control
Hoping this heartache will end
Trying hard to let go
She’s tired she’s empty again
She says “Wind me up”

Hurry up
You’re running in circles
Just hurry up
Time keeps on slipping
Hurry up
There’s no one but you here to save

Spinning out of control
Hoping this heartache will end
Trying hard to let go
She’s tired she’s empty again
She says “Wind me up”
