Hooked
Enchanting Spell: Love and Confusion in Alyssa Moneyse's 'Hooked'
Lyrics
Stop, Stop
Expression of urgency or command to stop
Stop Stop Stop
Reiterated urgency or command to stop
I, I, I, I
Emphasis on self (personal reflection)
Feel stupid
Feeling foolish or unintelligent
Cause you you you
Addressing someone directly (repetition for emphasis)
Knew ways to abuse me
Indicating the other person's manipulation or mistreatment
I close the door just to unlock it again, Man
Symbolic action of attempting to keep distance, yet unable to
I can't seem to run away
Struggling to escape from the influence or control
From your black magic touch
Feeling ensnared by a mysterious or compelling force
Cause
Transition to explaining reasons
I push back tell you go away
Resisting the person, asking them to leave
I dislike you but I want you to stay
Conflicting emotions—dislike but still desiring their presence
Right now
Emphasizing the current moment or situation
Right now
-Right now
-It's like I hate you but I love you
Internal conflict—simultaneously feeling love and hate
So confused that what love do
Confusion about the nature of love and its effects
Yeah yeah yeah
Agreement or affirmation with the situation
I keep borders up just to protect me
Creating barriers for self-protection
but with you I'm in a losing game
Despite efforts, losing in the relationship or interaction
I, I
Self-reflection on feeling foolish due to attachment
Feel stupid cause you got me
Admitting being ensnared or captivated by the person
Hooked, hooked, hooked on you
Expressing being deeply attached or addicted to the person
You got me
-Hooked, hooked, hooked on you
