[Verse 1] Feels like a broken toy, waiting to be destroyed Time keeps on creeping by every hour She's like a loaded gun, waits for the setting sun Time keeps on slipping by every hour [Pre-Chorus] She was the queen of silver linings Now she is the one who lives with ghosts [Chorus] Spinning out of control, hoping this heartache will end Trying hard to let go, she's tired she's empty again [Post-Chorus] She says, “Wind me up" "Wind me up" [Verse 2] 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
[Pre-Chorus] She was the queen of silver linings Now she is the one who lives with ghosts [Chorus] Spinning out of control, hoping this heartache will end Trying hard to let go, she's tired she's empty again [Post-Chorus] She says, “Wind me up "Wind me up," "wind me up" [Bridge] 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 [Chorus] Spinning out of control, hoping this heartache will end Trying hard to let go, she's tired she's empty again [Post-Chorus] She says, “Wind me up "Wind me up," "wind me up" "Wind me up," "wind me up" "Wind me up," "wind me up"
