Kryst the Conqueror Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Drops of blood glistening
And she sings, speaks of dreams
What will come, what will be
Of a time yet to come
I must look and try to see
Speaks of love, speaks of dreams
I've a bad feeling inside
As I'm drawn to a place
A hundred corpses
Woven graves
The widow now lay inside
The future is told through her eyes
This web be not my grave
From what I'm seeing
It's not hard believing
The words of her spell as she speaks
I have a feeling
I won't be leaving
One second more, and I'm spellbound
I want to look in her eyes
See what the future will bring
One step too close and I'm dead
A numbing cold freezing inside
Darkness and gloom
As she spins her web
It takes your life
Face to face, eye to eye
Times unwinding
As she sings, all it seems
To hypnotize me
Touch of doom, for her groom
She's paralyzing
Hers to feast when deceased
Her trap surrounds me
They won't stay open, my eyes
The vision's beginning to blur
Fever beginning to rise
Spins her web
The face of death in her eyes
The kiss of death is on her lips
The grip of death is in her thighs
Spins her web
Spins her web
It's no use pleading
The beast is needing
Me for the spell has been cast
I feel her kisses
My life dismisses
One last kiss and I'm spellbound
Death is the only surprise
Cunning her prey with her lies
Taking you down then you're
Spellbound
Too many brave men have died
To know what tomorrow will bring
Another cast on a silk tomb
Spellbound
Death is the only surprise
Cunning her prey with her lies
Taking you down then you're
Spellbound
Too many brave men have died
To know what tomorrow will bring
Another cast on a silk tomb
Spellbound
Spellbound
The lyrics of Kryst the Conqueror's "Spellbound" tell the story of a man who encounters a mysterious widow who has the power to foretell the future. Although he is initially drawn to her and her prophetic words, he eventually realizes that she is manipulating and entrapping him with her deadly spell. The song explores themes of fate, mortality, and the fine line between attraction and danger. The singer is torn between his desire to see what the future holds and his fear of falling into the web of the spellbound widow.
The lyrics are presented in a narrative form, with vivid imagery that creates an eerie and foreboding atmosphere. The repeated references to drops of blood and woven graves foreshadow the darkness that the widow represents. On the other hand, the references to love and dreams suggest that the singer is searching for hope and meaning in the face of the inevitable. Ultimately, the message of "Spellbound" is that even the strongest and bravest men can be taken down by the power of fate and the unknown.

So Doyle can play more than just power chords....
Mark Augustyniak
That solo was played by the guitarist from Skidrow.
One_With_Kevrything
Through Kryst, all things are possible.
The Great Danton
@Mark Augustyniak I knew Dave "snake" Sabo played a solo on one of the tracks in this album, but forgot which one.. Doyle apparently learned to play and refused the solo for "Descending Angel" on "Famous Monsters", though played much slower to fit the new songs tempo!.
HAFA74
... but Doyle has played with Danzig the last few years doing a 30 minute Misfits set. Danzig also produces Gorgeous Frankenstein (Doyles band).
