Svengali

[Intro Hook]

Everything has washed away except for all my hatred
Darkness in my heart I think my veins have become tainted
Chilling in the seventh circle playing chess with Satan
But he's in the ninth, couple floors down in the basement
The world can be so cold I think I'm gonna freeze inside this realm
Burn the planet down so I can take the role of a new helm
My presence is disorienting it can overwhelm
Higher than the trees I'm gonna climb inside a witch's elm

[Verse 1]

Writing twisted scriptures while I'm drunk up off this liquor
I'm Svengali I'm so sinister I'll pop your bubble like a blister
Call me mister drifter get real close so you can hear my whispers
Wrap you in this crazy twister don't resist or imma kill you, ugh
And your just a flicker on my legacy and I won't miss you
And I'll find another girl so I can strip her of her vigor
Keep her in this spiderweb so I can pull the trigger
Hypnotize your mind and Imma turn you to a singer
You think that you can leave but you are stuck here for eternity
The only way that you can leave is turn the walls to burgundy
My spell will last forever so you must treat me with courtesy
I always think in long term so I never move with urgency

[Hook 1]

The spiders will infest your mind forever trapped inside this web
Crawling in your eyes and skin confine you to a deathbed
I'll pull you up by puppet strings so you can do my bidding
The hooks are deep inside your tendons so I think it's fitting
The spiders will infest your mind forever trapped inside this web
Crawling in your eyes and skin confine you to a deathbed
I'll pull you up by puppet strings so you can do my bidding
The hooks are deep inside your tendons so I think it's fitting

[Verse 2]

I can feel the tension and I see you're tryna get away
Bring you back again my devil eyes will keep you here to stay
You can try and fight I'll even entertain your little play
I know everything there is to know be careful what you say
Look at who you're talking too I'll blind you with the gas light
Accuse me of whatever cause the trick is that you're always right
Let you think you got me that's when I'll come back and bite
Slip the rug from under you to see you fall such a delight, but
You struggle more than anyone I've ever captured
This should not be happening I'll blame it on the rapture
My brain is getting hazy cause my life is manufactured
Maybe I'm the victim cause I think my bones are fractured

[Hook 2]

The spiders will infest my mind forever trapped inside this web
Crawling in my eyes and skin confine me to a deathbed
You'll pull me up by puppet strings so I can do your bidding
The hooks are deep inside my tendons so you think it's fitting
The spiders will infest my mind forever trapped inside this web
Crawling in my eyes and skin confine me to a deathbed
You'll pull me up by puppet strings, I can do your bidding
The hooks are deep inside my tendons so you think it's fitting

[Verse 3]

Pen knife to my throat and now you got me stuck in a cocoon
Is this what it's like to be trapped I thought I was immune
Must've let my guard down and now I'm treated like I'm a buffoon
Tables turn you live and learn upon a dreary afternoon
I don't mind the hypnotize cause I don't have to think
Dominatrix treat me like a dog I know I'm on the brink
Slice me open grab a pen and use my blood as ink
If I disobey I know you'll bash my head over the sink
Never-ending tug of war I want to take back my control
But I'll kiss your feet I guess that I'll be forced to just extol
Nothing in my brain and so I burn myself on these hot coals
La Svengali is a woman and she's never giving back my soul
