Jeffery Straker Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

C'mon!
Yeah
Can you hear me now?
Or should I sell?
I'm thanking you for this little favour
These butterflies are dipped in silver
They pull me on this roller coaster
And man if feels so good

I'm sailin', climin up higher and higher
You lit me up on an open fire
Your draggin me round on strings of desire
And I can't go back I can't

I'm hypnotised, your fallin' through
Feeling like I'm drunk on you
You got me high I'm flyin'
This feels good

I'm hypnotised, your fallin through
Drench my mind, I'm yours to use
You got me high I'm flyin'
This is goo oh oh oh oh o o ood

Hm hm yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

I was feeling kinda left out in the cold
I came inside with you oh oh oh oh
And this aint no tail that I've ever told
Oh but it's good it's good it's good

I've got sun drippin' from this soul of mine
Struck gold lookin just like you eyes
I opened the bottle and tasted the wine
And I can't go back I can't

I'm hypnotised, your fallin' through
Feeling like I'm drunk on you
You got me high I'm flyin'
This feels good

I'm hypnotised, your fallin through
Drench my mind, I'm yours to use
You got me high I'm flyin'
This is goo oh oh oh oh o o ood

Hm hm yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

And this is good, feeling like it should
This is good, feeling like it should
Oh, this is goooood, feeling like it should

Feels like the clock has stopped
No reason left for time
Suspended state of bliss like the first time I got high
I'll take a trip, I'm floating round
Don't wanna touch down

I'm hypnotised, your fallin' through
Feeling like I'm drunk on you
You got me high I'm flyin'
This feels good

I'm hypnotised, your fallin through
Drench my mind, I'm yours to use
You got me high I'm flyin'
This is goo oh oh oh oh o o ood

Hm hm yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah





C'mon Come on come on come on come on come on.

Overall Meaning

The song "Hypnotized" by Jeffery Straker is about being completely consumed by someone else, falling under their spell, and feeling hypnotized by their presence. The singer expresses their gratitude towards the subject of the song, thanking them for making them feel alive and rejuvenated. The lyrics describe the sensations and emotions associated with falling under someone's control as being akin to being under the influence of drugs. The singer feels like they are on a roller coaster, rising higher and higher, and they are powerless to resist the person's magnetic pull. They liken their state to being drunk, floating, and suspended in time. The refrain "this feels good" emphasizes the singer's enjoyment of the experience.


The lyrics also express the idea that this hypnotic state is both all-encompassing and temporary. The singer acknowledges that they can never go back to their old life and that they have been irreversibly changed by their experience but also notes that the feeling of being hypnotized will eventually fade, and they will have to return to reality. Despite this, the singer seems mostly content to bask in the glow of their current infatuation.


Overall, "Hypnotized" is a song about the exhilarating feeling of giving oneself over to someone else entirely and the ecstasy that comes with this surrender.
