[Verse 1] I wanna be on the front line, knotted up suit ties Talking like a headstrong mamma Got a picture in your wallet Making me a habit, wearing your vintage t-shirt Tied ribbons on your top hat Telling me I'm all that, just like the girls from your hometown Sweet blooded and up-stranded, see if I can stand it, shrinking in the shallow water
[Pre-Chorus] Magnetic everything about you You really got me, now
[Chorus] You took to me so well Hypnotic taking over me Make me feel like someone else You got me talking in my sleep I don't wanna come back down I don't wanna touch the ground Pacific Ocean, down so deep Hypnotic taking over me
[Verse 2] White threads on my laces Stuck on the hinges, swinging the door to the back yard Cut splinters, walk a tightrope Spun like a bandage touch on the outer surface Bright eyes of the solstice wherever your mind is headed for a freight train city Locked up till you're moonlit Brushing my hair back, feeling your lips on my cold neck
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus](2x)
[Outro] Hypnotic taking over me Hypnotic taking over me
