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.
