Hypnotized
Dear David Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh Oh My
I've been hypnotized again
Oh Oh My
When you call I come again
Keep me high 'till the morning comes
Oh Oh My
I've been hypnotized again
Oh Oh My
And you say we're only friends
Oh Oh My
I've been hypnotized again
Oh Oh My
When you call I come again
Keep me high 'till the morning comes
I'm afraid I can't hold it back
See the devil in your eyes
I'm afraid I can't hold it back
Keep me high 'till the morning comes
I'm afraid I can't hold it back
See the devil in your eyes
I'm afraid I can't hold it back, so...
Keep me high 'till the morning comes
Oh Oh My
I've been hypnotized again
Oh Oh My
And you say we're only friends
Oh Oh My
I've been hypnotized again
Oh Oh My
When you call I come again




Keep me high 'till the morning comes
Keep me high 'till the morning comes

Overall Meaning

The song "Hypnotized" by Dear David is a mesmerizing track that delves into the idea of falling under someone's spell. The lyrics evoke a sense of being powerless to resist the pull of someone you're attracted to, even if you know it may not be the best thing for you.

The singer cannot resist the lure of the person's voice, and feels drawn back to them time and time again.


The chorus of "Keep me high 'till the morning comes" gives a sense of being lost in the moment and not wanting it to end. It is as if the singer is asking the other person to keep them in this trance-like state of euphoria until the morning comes, possibly trying to hold onto the feelings and not let them fade away. The verse "See the devil in your eyes, I'm afraid I can't hold it back" hints at the danger and potentially harmful aspects of this attraction. Despite the fear, the singer admits that they cannot resist the lure of the person, and finds themselves lost in their spell all over again.


Overall, "Hypnotized" is a song that explores the idea of being powerless to resist someone you're attracted to even when it may not be the best thing for you. The lyrics convey a sense of helplessness, addiction, and being lost in the moment, all of which create a mesmerizing effect that is both hypnotic and haunting.
