Hypnotic

About Hypnotic

"Hypnotic" is a song recorded by American singer Zella Day for her second extended play, Zella Day (2014), and her second studio album, Kicker (2015). It was released as the latter record's lead single on February 27, 2015 as a digital download through Pinetop and Hollywood Records. Written by Zella Day, Xandy Barry, James Bailey, and Ryan Ogren, "Hypnotic" was produced by the Wax LTD team of Barry and Wally Gagel. Musically an alternative, folk, and pop song, its lyrics deal with the protagonist begging her lover for mutual respect. The song was regarded by contemporary music critics as a standout. It was also appreciated for bringing the sadcore genre to light. An accompanying music video for "Hypnotic" was issued ten days after its after physical release, and features the singer bathing in a bathtub with a horse, dancing in a room, and driving a car through the desert. more »

 Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer

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

Magnetic everything about you
You really got me, now

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, dug so deep
Hypnotic taking over me

White threads on my laces, stuck on the hinges
Swinging the door to the backyard
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

Magnetic everything about you
You really got me, now

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, dug so deep
Hypnotic taking over me
Hypnotic taking over me

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, dug so deep
Hypnotic taking over me

Hypnotic taking over me
Hypnotic taking over me
