"Pinwheels", sebuah lagu anggun yang dibawakan oleh The Smashing Pumpkins, menggemakan kerinduan dan kekecewaan yang mendalam. Liriknya yang puitis membangkitkan rasa sakit dan ambiguitas yang terkait dengan cinta yang tidak terbalas. Metafora yang digunakan dengan indah, seperti "floating away" dan "loss seem new", menggambarkan perjalanan emosional yang bergejolak dari sang narator yang berjuang untuk memahami hubungan yang penuh gejolak.
Pinwheels Lyrics
The Smashing Pumpkins
Mother moon
Mistress of the sun, say
I got you, I got you
Sister soul
Lover of the tune, sing!
I got you, I got you, I got you
Floating away I thing I'll stay as refused
Floating away I thing I'll stay blue-black
Floating away I thing I'll change next to you
Finding a way to make the loss seem new
'Cause you don't deserve me
But I deserve you
Mother moon
Mistress of the sun, say
I got you, I got you
Sister soul
Lover of the tune, sing!
I got you
I got you
Mother moon
Mistress of the sun, say
I got you, I got you, oh I've got you
I got you, I got you mother moon
Floating away I thing I'll stay as refused
Finding a way to make the loss seem now
Floating away I thing I'll change next to you
Finding a way to make the loss seem new
'Cause you don't deserve me
But I deserve you
Flies for the may queen
But life for the prince
If nobody wins
Then what get's lost?
If I've got you
Mistress of the sun, say
I got you, I got you
Sister soul
Lover of the tune, sing!
I got you, I got you, I got you
Floating away I thing I'll stay as refused
Floating away I thing I'll stay blue-black
Floating away I thing I'll change next to you
Finding a way to make the loss seem new
'Cause you don't deserve me
But I deserve you
Mother moon
Mistress of the sun, say
I got you, I got you
Sister soul
Lover of the tune, sing!
I got you
I got you
Mother moon
Mistress of the sun, say
I got you, I got you, oh I've got you
I got you, I got you mother moon
Floating away I thing I'll stay as refused
Finding a way to make the loss seem now
Floating away I thing I'll change next to you
Finding a way to make the loss seem new
'Cause you don't deserve me
But I deserve you
Flies for the may queen
But life for the prince
If nobody wins
Then what get's lost?
If I've got you
