Something something about Worthikids song Spinning Wheel being about how people think that once your out of the worst of mental illness it’s smooth sailing from there but in that recovery phase you’re always at risk of slipping back into it

#something something about “sleeping dogs won’t bite’ meaning ppl think that once ur recovering your brain can’t hurt you again something #something about ‘a dull mind cant cut you’ also meaning the same that your mental illness lost its ‘edge’ but it’s not true #then the ‘spellbound I lose sight of the picture spinning wheel cries for me to prick my finger #‘ meaning that in a moment of weakness ur brain tries and gets you this line also synonymous with self harm as a coping method. that once #you are under a lot of stress again the way you harmed yourself literally comes back to mind and u kinda gotta just push it away but some #people sometimes DO get spell bound and the spinning wheel does cause them to prick they finger #also the sleeping beauty parallels here LIKE once the needle on the spinning wheel pricks you and you fall back into the deep(slumber) slump #of depression and such. also when dude said ‘I thought things would get better’ like oh yeah you know he trying to recover yet the spinning #wheel do be crying for him to prick his finger #then the referencing another song in the EP in the outro that was representative of like a depressive slump with the ‘when did my hair get #so long’ and ‘how many times have I looped this song’ like yeah he pricked his finger 😔 #anyways artists with extremely symbolic and metaphorical songs my absolute beloved
