Hypnotized
The Ditch Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Kind of makes me wonder
If I got you suicidal now
Every time you kiss me
Know that you will miss me
Guess I got you suicidal
You can call it love
You can call it hate
But I donβ²t care
I'm sorry baby I'm just that kind of guy
Waiting for a happy ending
No Iβ²m not pretending
Listen, what I say is vital
Every time you touch me
Know that you canβ²t trust me
Get it in your head, it's final
You can call it love
When Iβ²m not there
You can call it hate
But I don't
Care anymore
Not like before
Hypnotize me
Mesmerize me
But then youβ²ll have to go
When you're smiling
When youβ²re crying
I don't want to know
I'm sorry baby Iβ²m just that kind of...
You call it love
You call it hate
I call it suicide
Hypnotize me
Mesmerize me
But then youβ²ll have to go
When you're crying
When youβ²re smiling
I don't want to know
Iβ²m sorry baby I'm just that kind of guy
The song βHypnotizedβ by The Ditch is about a toxic and manipulative relationship. The lyrics describe how the girl is under a βwicked spell,β and the singer wonders if he is making her suicidal with his behavior. The chorus repeats the line βYou can call it love when I'm not there, you can call it hate, but I don't care,β indicating that the singer is indifferent to the girl's feelings and is only concerned with his own satisfaction. He apologizes but says he is βjust that kind of guy.β
The verse continues with the singer acknowledging the girlβs feelings towards him, but he still cannot commit to her. He mentions that he is not pretending to wait for a happy ending with her, and every time she touches him, she cannot trust him. He tells her to βget it in your head, it's final,β indicating that he has made up his mind and that there is no changing it. The bridge of the song repeats the chorus, but with a slight variation in which the singer asks the girl to βhypnotizeβ and βmesmerizeβ him, but then she will have to leave. He admits that he doesnβt want to know when sheβs happy or sad and that he only cares about himself, even if it means causing harm to the girl.
Line by Line Meaning
Girl this wicked spell you're under
I have noticed that you seem to be under some kind of mysterious, perhaps even sinister influence
Kind of makes me wonder
It makes me curious and perhaps concerned about what is causing this spell over you
If I got you suicidal now
I can't help but think that maybe I am causing you some kind of distress or harm
Every time you kiss me
Whenever we share intimacy
Know that you will miss me
I know that you will long for me when we are not together
Guess I got you suicidal
I have the feeling that my presence in your life is causing you some kind of pain or distress
You can call it love
You might think this feeling you have for me is love
When I'm not there
During the times when I am absent from your life
You can call it hate
Or maybe you think it's hate
But I don't care
Regardless of what you call it, I don't really care about your feelings towards me
I'm sorry baby I'm just that kind of guy
I apologize, but this is just the way I am as a person and I cannot change it
Waiting for a happy ending
Hoping that our relationship will lead to a positive and happy conclusion
No I'm not pretending
I want to make it clear that I am being sincere and genuine in my desire for a happy outcome
Listen, what I say is vital
Please pay attention, because what I am telling you is important
Every time you touch me
Whenever we have physical contact
Know that you can't trust me
Understand that I may not always have your best interests at heart and may not be reliable
Get it in your head, it's final
Please fully accept and understand that this is the way things are, it cannot be changed
You can call it love
You might think this feeling you have for me is love
When I'm not there
During the times when I am absent from your life
You can call it hate
Or maybe you think it's hate
But I don't care anymore
Regardless of what you call it, I no longer feel any emotional connection to you
Not like before
My feelings have changed from what they used to be
Hypnotize me
Please put me under your spell
Mesmerize me
Make me fascinated and entranced by you
But then you'll have to go
But I know that eventually you will have to leave and I cannot hold onto you
When you're smiling
I don't want to see you happy
When you're crying
I also don't want to see you upset
I don't want to know
I prefer to remain ignorant of your emotions and feelings
I'm sorry baby I'm just that kind of...
Once again, I apologize for my behavior and feelings, but this is just the way I am as a person
You call it love
You might think this feeling you have for me is love
You call it hate
Or maybe you think it's hate
I call it suicide
But I believe that our relationship is ultimately harmful and damaging to both of us
