When I first met you it was like thunder
your eyes into mine
the rain pouring down all over us
You caught me in your web of my youth
But now I know the wicked truth
I stand next to you
It's much too late so what's the use in fighting
what is there for me to gain out in this rain
you took the light out of my life
You peeled my mind like an onion
one day you'll turn up to begin something
And find there's nothing left but innuendo
beside you, others fade away but I stand straight
I am brave walking the line of all time
you have me hypnotized
you can see it in my eyes
but that will be all you can see
you still try to read my eyes of another kind
but that will be something you could never take from me
This is much more than just a game you play
this is the life of truth or dares with fear of you
These certain rules become a way of living
this is the way to walk into the night without the light
night after night I try to prove my love
that I can resist you
but you have a spell on me
you had tied me up inside your lies and voodoo
You have designed your manipulations
you cast your spell all over the land
all over the sea, that cry's for me
You made me the Queen of sensuality
You shelter me into your darkness
you have taken me down into weakness of your lies
That's not to say it doesn't please me sometimes
now this may come as no surprise
but you have issued this I can see
no one has to tell me
But I'm content to compromise
until the day you realize I could never truly love you
I have been manipulated by you
without this spell, you couldn't keep me down.
