This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
I feel like I've been here once before,
You threw my bags out through the door,
And in the road.
I came home to find them on the floor,
And as the rain began to pour,
I got cold.
And I tried to compromise,
But you kept telling all these lies,
And now I don't get to say my last goodbye.
Goodbye to you been wasting all my time,
Your no longer mine,
And now you've left me I can't seem to get you off my mind.
That's when I realized,
You had me hypnotized (had me hypnotized).
Why am I now living on my own,
She keeps inviting people home,
All the time.
Why am I still paying for her to phone,
When all the luxury's she owns should be mine.
Now I start to wonder why
You shrug me off when I say hi
Treat me so bad despite how hard I try.
Goodbye to you been wasting all my time,
Your no longer mine,
And now you've left me I can't seem to get you off my mind.
That's when I realized,
You had me hypnotized (had me hypnotized).
Girl you can't hold me back no more,
Gonna be the one were writing lyrics for
We had something good together,
Did you think you were big and clever,
To throw me out in awful weather,
How do I forget you now.
Can't get you off my mind,
That's when I realized,
You had me hypnotized (had me hypnotized)
You've been wasting all my time,
Your no longer mine,
And now you've left me I can't seem to get you off my mind.
That's when I realized,
You had me hypnotized!
You threw my bags out through the door,
And in the road.
I came home to find them on the floor,
And as the rain began to pour,
I got cold.
And I tried to compromise,
But you kept telling all these lies,
And now I don't get to say my last goodbye.
Goodbye to you been wasting all my time,
Your no longer mine,
And now you've left me I can't seem to get you off my mind.
That's when I realized,
You had me hypnotized (had me hypnotized).
Why am I now living on my own,
She keeps inviting people home,
All the time.
Why am I still paying for her to phone,
When all the luxury's she owns should be mine.
Now I start to wonder why
You shrug me off when I say hi
Treat me so bad despite how hard I try.
Goodbye to you been wasting all my time,
Your no longer mine,
And now you've left me I can't seem to get you off my mind.
That's when I realized,
You had me hypnotized (had me hypnotized).
Girl you can't hold me back no more,
Gonna be the one were writing lyrics for
We had something good together,
Did you think you were big and clever,
To throw me out in awful weather,
How do I forget you now.
Can't get you off my mind,
That's when I realized,
You had me hypnotized (had me hypnotized)
You've been wasting all my time,
Your no longer mine,
And now you've left me I can't seem to get you off my mind.
That's when I realized,
You had me hypnotized!

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
harmonica solo?????? haha, is there no ends to dannys talents, i can play this on harmonica (go on people, take time to laugh at the fact i play harmonica) the lyrics are clever in this, same story as all their songs but some good lyrics.
i love tis song, harmonica solo, classic, danny is a legend to me...not the biggest legend but he will be an inspiration t all budding musicians out there
This is a ace Mcfly song. I love it so much. x
this song is one of my favourites of mcfly. the harmonica solo is amazing and although a lot of people criticise it for "copying" bob dylan, i think thats stupid because it fits perfectly with the song and bob dylans a legend anyway its not like its gonna take away his fame. this song is brilliant. i love the first line of the chorus, it just hits you with pure genius lyric/melody writing. the way the "you" is doubly used. it makes it so original and clever and i sound so lame for acting like this song writing is as good as conor oberst's (cos i know it blatantly isnt) but i do think it is a really good song.
also, danny's voice is fit as fuck.
woo i'm meeting Mcfly in 3 days XD..love this song
