‘Drawing Pins’ seems to be about the confusion and frustration of the speaker in a relationship. The first verse describes a feeling of being overwhelmed and disoriented, with everything seeming to be fighting against them. The pre-chorus suggests that the speaker feels isolated and disconnected fro...
[Verse 1]
Every light is blinding
Every minute lasts all day
Every thought is fighting
They're not falling into place
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm held down by drawing pins
They pierce the skin
Lights are on but no one's in
When you talk
I don't feel like I belong
Here at all
[Chorus]
Tell me what you did it
What you did it
What you did it for
'Cause I, I, I can't figure it out
What you did it
What you did it
What you did it for
'Cause I, I, I can't figure it out
[Verse]
I could use some Magick
C'mon Crowley, let me in
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm held down by drawing pins
They pierce the skin
I try not to fall asleep
When you talk
I don't think that I belong
Here at all
[Chorus]
Tell me what you did it
What you did it
What you did it for
'Cause I, I, I can't figure it out
What you did it
What you did it
What you did it for
'Cause I, I, I can't figure it out
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
What do I have to do
To be loved, loved by you?
What do I have to do
To be loved, loved by you?
What do I have to do
To be loved, loved by you?
What do I have to do
To be loved, loved by you?
[Chorus]
Tell me what you did it
What you did it
What you did it for
'Cause I, I, I can't figure it out
What you did it
What you did it
What you did it for
'Cause I, I, I can't figure it out
What do I have to do
To be loved, loved by you

“‘Drawing Pins’ was the last song we recorded before the album was delivered and completed and given off to the guys that do whatever with it. And we had that song, at least the first half of the song, for a couple years I’d say and we experimented with it in the studio, it even went to the album re...
