Sampha – What If You Hypnotise Me? Lyrics

What If You Hypnotise Me? Lyrics

If you could gift my feelings language
Speech is a necessary magic sometimes
Please articulate my anguish
Please explain to me why these raindrops accompany better times, yeah

If you could make all the
If you could
Make the
What if, what if, what ifs
Just fly away for a minute
If you could make all the
If you could make the
What if, what if, what ifs
Just fly away for a minute

I remember
Angels weeping at my bad habits
I remember
Swan matches and smoke dancing on the window pane
Expand on that
That’s interesting, what else do you remember?
I remember
Thinking until my thoughts got damaged
I remember
Someone said that you could help find my thoughts a name
Psycho-ana, hypno-thera
Could you find my thoughts?

Is it that I need some love?
Love of the selfish kind?
Is it that I need to know
What’s in the depth of mind?
Indeed if I do find out
Would I just stay confined?
Wishful thinking games
Wait till the stars align
Is it ’cause memories break
Why I feel lost in time?
Is it ’cause I’ve made mistakes
Karma taking flight?
But if you could hypnotise me
Then maybe then peace would find me
Oh, if you could hypnotise me
Then maybe then peace would find

If you could make all the
If you could
Make the
What if, what if, what ifs
Just fly away for a minute
If you could make all the
If you could make the
What if, what if, what ifs
Just fly away for a minute

Quiet storms dwelling on what you’re not
I’ll help you find a way out
Easily swayed
You’re not cautious enough
Who made you this way?
Travelling inside your confine
Traffic in your heart and your mind
The spirit of your memory’s gone blind
There’s answers in your body entwined
