2 Magnetic East - Mezmeric Lyrics

She told me my future
Said it wasn't clear
When I look in the future boy
I don't see you here
Didn't hear a word she said
I couldn't break her gaze
While she talked about the future
I was lost and dazed

Dangerous snake charmer
Stared into the void
Asked about the future paths
Which one I could enjoy
He said you don't have one
If you can't escape the past
Your obsession with prediction
Means you're fading fast

Well I'm mesmerised
Trapped in the tunnels of my mind
And I'm self-hypnotised
Like a rabbit caught in headlights
Stood there thinking I'm alright

I prayed to a reflection
I thought it was a god
Asked if there's a future coming
Somewhere on the road
He said you'll have to face your fears
To escape the fires
Can't get to the future boy
While you remain a liar

Gypsy queen snake charmer
Opaque crystal ball
I burned the lot no meaning
You gave me nothing at all
Felt the peace seep back inside
As they all vaporised
Close my eyes the future's here
I'm still mesmerised
I'm mesmerised
