Lyrics

Hypnotized

Side to side, hypnotised, I'd break the law
Is maybe good enough, good enough
To see it through, through with you, I could be yours
But I need the night off, the night off

I could let myself be mine for a while
I realise that I need the time, need the time
Heavy on the heart, harder on the mind
But I'm made up, I'm made up

'Cause I'm trying to work on me right now
Been going too fast, I need to slow down
I've seen it all before, so I turn the lights out
Just to feel it, just to feel it

I've been hypnotised, hypnotised
Pull me out the water, I'm hypnotised
I've been hypnotised, hypnotised
Pull me out the water, I'm hypnotised

I'm a fool, fool for you, give me some more
Before I cut you off, cut you off
Here again, 2 a.m., I'll take it all
But I need the night off, the night off

I could let myself be mine for a while
I realise that I need the time, need the time
Heavy on the heart, harder on the mind
But I'm made up, I'm made up

'Cause I'm trying to work on me right now
Been going too fast, I need to slow down
I've seen it all before, so I turn the lights out
Just to feel it, just to feel it

I've been hypnotised, hypnotised
Pull me out the water, I'm hypnotised
I've been hypnotised, hypnotised
Pull me out the water, I'm hypnotised, whoa

'Cause I'm trying to work on me right now
Been going too fast, I need to slow down
I've seen it all before, so I turn the lights out
Just to feel it, just to feel it

I've been hypnotised, hypnotised
Pull me out the water, I'm hypnotised
I've been hypnotised, hypnotised
Pull me out the water, I'm hypnotised

I've been hypnotised, hypnotised
Pull me out the water, I'm hypnotised
I've been hypnotised, hypnotised
Pull me out the water, I'm hypnotised
