Trance Anthem

I met a girl, and her eyes shone
I became convinced she was the one
My hopes were high, but it manifested
That she simply was not interested
I didn't let myself get downhearted
I went to the library, and got started
I learned answer to every question
And the power of suggestion

I gazed at her and repeated some well rehearsed lines
Her eyes clouded over, and now she's mine
I know this isn't love, this is hypnosis
But I can't figure out how to reverse the process

Now our relationship is the best
But I feel slightly guilty nonetheless
I know I've got her under false pretenses
But she should have kept up her psychic defenses
I'm a bad person, I know I've trapped her
I wish I'd read the final chapter
So I went back to see what I'd missed
I saw the librarian, and couldn't resist...

I gazed at her and repeated some well rehearsed lines
Her eyes clouded over, and now she's mine
I know this isn't love, this is hypnosis
But I can't figure out how to reverse the process

So now there are two; I must keep them apart
I control their minds but not their hearts
Their paths finally crossed, we were watching a band..
I lost them both when I clapped my hands
How was I to know the spell wouldn't linger
If I started to applaud or clicked my fingers?
So I learned my lesson, and I started to cry
Until the lead singer caught my eye...

I gazed at her and repeated some well rehearsed lines
Her eyes clouded over, and now she's mine
I know this isn't love, this is hypnosis
But I can't figure out how to reverse the process.
