Magnetised Lyrics

See those birds going across the sky
Three thousand miles they fly
How do they know which way to go?
Somehow they always seem to know
They say there's mother nature in everything we see
Wish I had a little mother nature in me
Wish I had a little mother nature in me

'Cause it's not right, I'm magnetised
To somebody that don't feel it
Love paralyzed, she's never gonna need me
But sure as the world keeps the moon in the sky
She'll keep me hanging on
She keeps me hanging on

See the couple lying on the bus
Falling asleep with so much trust
I wish I had a chance to let them know
Their love is like a flower in the snow
If it's just pheromones then that may be
I wish you had a little pheromones for me
I wish you had a little pheromones for me

'Cause it's not right, I'm magnetised
To somebody that don't feel it
Love paralyzed, I know you're never gonna need me
I'm sure as the world keeps the moon in the sky
She'll keep me hanging on (keep me hanging on)
She'll keep me hanging on (keep me hanging on)
She'll keep me hanging on (keep me hanging on)

North to south, white to black
When you love someone that don't love you back

Yeah it's not right, I'm magnetised
To somebody that don't feel it
Love paralyzed, she's never gonna need me
But sure as the world keeps the moon in the sky
She'll keep me hanging on (keep me hanging on)
She'll keep me hanging on (keep me hanging on)
She'll keep me hanging on (keep me hanging on)
She'll keep me hanging on

What is the Meaning of Magnetised?

Exploring the complexities of unrequited love, this emotionally-charged track delves into the protagonist's struggle with his feelings for someone who does not reciprocate them. The term 'magnetised' symbolises his helpless attraction towards this person, despite knowing that his love is one-sided. He compares this painful experience to natural phenomena such as birds instinctively knowing their migration paths or the moon's constant presence in the sky - predictable yet inexplicable. The song also underscores the irony of wanting what we can't have, represented by his longing for 'mother nature' and 'pheromones', elements that naturally attract beings to each other. Ultimately, it's a poignant reflection on the torment of loving someone who will never need you in return.
