Spellbound
Imagika Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A born lair, a nymphomaniac and man-hater

With a tongue made of pure evil
You found a way to twist the truth
And I was led astray by desire

Jet-black hair, blood red lips and seductive stare
With hallow words you fed my ego
As I slipped into your noose
With each smile your grip grew tighter

Coated eyes, with portraits you've been painting
Textured liews, Images forever tainted, forever jaded
Well disguised, were your true intentions
Your designs, were spiteful and malicious, simply vicious

Dark whispers flood my mind, entranced, so it begins
Bewildered by her charms, I find I'm spellbound again

Dark whispers flood my mind, entranced, so it begins
Bewildered by her charms, I find I'm spellbound again

So beautiful, the tempation's beyond my control

First she loves then she hates me
Gets her kicks from being cruel
Still I'm drawn to her fire




Yes she drives me crazy
And I've only myself to save me
